Holding

The petition was dismissed as it was not circulated and sought vague relief.

Summary

                                                      Date     :   18th March 2026.

                              P. C. :

                              1.        The Petition is of the year 2016. It is not even circulated for once.

                              2.        Today the Petitioner is not present. The vague and general prayers are

                              made in the Petition i.e. ‘not to initiate any action against him’.

                              3.        Considering the prayers sought in the Petition, and in view of the fact

                              that the Petition has not been circulated, the Petition stands disposed of as

                              dismissed.



                              [ RANJITSINHA RAJA BHONSALE, J. ]                [ MRS. VRUSHALI V. JOSHI, J. ]
