Hon'ble Alok Mathur,J.
1. Case called out.
2. None appears for the revisionist to press the petition.
3. A perusal of the order sheet indicates that the matter was
referred for mediation to the Mediation and Conciliation Centre
but during the mediation proceedings no agreement was arrived
at between the parties. Subsequently, the matter is being listed
but no appearance is being put in on behalf of the parties. It
seems that they are not interested in pursuing the matter.
4. Accordingly, the interim order granted on 28.11.2023 is
vacated and the revision is dismissed for want of prosecution.
