                                            DATE :       7 SEPTEMBER 2026

                      P.C.

                      1.       Heard the learned Counsel for the Respondent.

                      2.       None present for the Petitioner.

                      3.       None appeared for the Petitioner on 24 August 2026 as well.

                      4.       Hence, the Court was constrained to post the Petition ‘for Dismissal’.

                      5.       It seems that the Petitioner has lost interest in prosecuting this Petition.

                      6.       Writ Petition stands dismissed for want of prosecution.




                                                                             ( N.J.JAMADAR, J. )
