                    DATED : 7 SEPTEMBER 2026.

Per Court :

1.    None for the petitioners.

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

petition in the year 2021, did not care to take circulation of the

matter till today. Notices are also not not issued in this matter.

Thus, it appears that the petitioners are not interested in

prosecuting the matter, and therefore, it stands dismissed for

non prosecution.
