A writ petition (No.12580 of 2022) was filed by Govind Shankar Kate and others against Dilip Pandurang Ghule and others. No counsel appeared on behalf of the petitioners, and it appears the petitioners lost interest in prosecuting the petition. The respondent, through Mr. Sujit B. Padarut, was present. The Court examined whether the petition could proceed in the absence of any prosecution by the petitioners. Finding no prosecution, the Court dismissed the petition for want of prosecution. The order was pronounced by Justice Aarti Sathe on 22 September 2026.
