ORDERP. Venkatarama Reddi, J.1. In these revision petitions preferred under Section 22 of the Andhra Pradesh Buildings (Lease, Rent and Eviction) Control Act (hereinafter referred to as 'the Act'), the only question that arises for consideration is whether the Appellate Authority constituted under Section 20 of the Act is empowered to condone the delay in filing appeals on sufficient cause being shown by the appellants by invoking Section 5 of the (Indian) Limitation Act, 1963.
