However for the ends of justice court allows ws tobe filed with cost.
Rajeev kulshreshtha (Expert) 04 August 2010
According to the supreme court judgement's the provision of O 8 R i is directory and not mandatory. Power of court to extend time for filing WS beyond time schedule period is not completely taken away.
DEFENSE ADVOCATE.-firmaction@g (Expert) 10 August 2010
Basic reasons behind allowing the WS after ninty days also with costs or no costs is that the administration of justice is meant for imparting justice and hence the interpretation of provisions of law should not result is denial of justice.
