2.Though the learned counsel for the petitioner raised several grounds for quashing the proceeding in C.C.No.255 of 2011, he submitted that it would suffice, if a direction is issued to the trial Court to complete the trial within a time limit that may be stipulated by this Court and also to permit the petitioner to raise all the grounds raised in this petition before the trial Court.
