Holding
The petition is dismissed for non‑prosecution.
Summary
D.S. Kulkarni Developers Ltd filed a writ petition (No. 893 of 2020) in the Bombay High Court challenging an unspecified order of the State of Maharashtra. The court noted that after 28 February 2020, neither the petitioner nor its counsel took any steps to circulate the petition. The record showed a clear lack of interest by the petitioner in pursuing the matter. Consequently, the judges observed that the petitioner was not prosecuting the petition. The court therefore dismissed the writ petition for non‑prosecution.
Issues considered
