Summary

Shivram Bhau Rao Bhogade filed a civil application (No. 9503 of 2026) before the Bombay High Court, Aurangabad Bench, seeking relief against the Union of India and the General Manager, Central Railway. The applicant was represented by Mr. Shinde Chandrakant K., while the respondents were represented by Ms. Dr. Kalpalata Patil Bharaswadkar. The sole question before the Court was whether the civil application should be entertained. The Court observed that the applicant's counsel did not press the application before the bench. Consequently, the Court held that there was no basis to proceed and disposed of the application. The judgment reflects the procedural principle that a civil application must be actively pursued by the applicant's counsel to continue.
