After filing, the petitioner neither appeared before the court nor pursued the matter in any manner. The respondents, the State of Maharashtra and others, were represented by Mr. G.A.

                    CORAM : SANDIPKUMAR C. MORE AND
                            VAISHALI PATIL-JADHAV, JJ.

                    DATED       : 16th September, 2026

Per Court :

1.    None for the petitioner.

2.    The record shows that the petitioner, after filing this

petition, neither remained present before this court nor he

circulated the matter till today.           Thus, it appears that the

petitioner is not interested in prosecuting the matter, and

therefore, the petition stands dismissed for non prosecution.
