Holding
The Court held that the writ petitions are infructuous and therefore disposed of.
Summary
United India Insurance Co. Ltd. filed two writ petitions in 2015 against respondents Rakhma (wife of Ashok Chavan) and Pramila (wife of Dattu Jagtap). The petitioner argued that the petitions had become infructuous due to the passage of time. The learned counsel submitted that the delay rendered the petitions ineffective. The Court, after considering the submission, agreed that the petitions were infructuous. Consequently, both writ petitions were disposed of without any substantive order on the merits.
