Nainar Sundaram, A.C.J.

1.

On being referred to a Bench by Mishra, J. the question of maintainability of a revision under the Pondicherry Buildings (Lease and Rent

Control) Act, 1969, hereinafter referred to as the Act, beyond a period of sixty days with an application for condonation of delay in preferring the

revision has come up before us for consideration. S.25 of the Act is in pari materia with S.25 of the Tamilnadu Buildings (Lease and Rent Control)

Act 18 of 1960, hereinafter referred to as the Tamilnadu Act. The question of condoning the delay in preferring a revision beyond the time

prescribed under S.25 of the Tamilnadu Act stands already answered in the negative by pronouncements of learned single Judges of this Court,

Vide--

ratio countenanced in them, and there is no warrant to depart or differ from the said pronouncements of this Court. Applying the ratio expressed in

the said pronouncements of this Court, to this revision arising under the Act, the papers in this Revision are rejected.
