Holding
The appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution due to the appellant's failure to appear.
Summary
The appellant, C/M Waqf No. 318 Rampur, filed a first appeal before the Allahabad High Court against a decision of the U.P. Sunni Central Waqf Board. The appeal was listed for hearing, but the appellant failed to appear even after the case was called in the revised list. The court noted that no representative of the appellant was present to prosecute the appeal. Consequently, the court held that the appeal could not be proceeded with in the absence of the appellant. The appeal was therefore dismissed for want of prosecution, and any interim order that had been passed was vacated.
