                                                                      Versus

                                    Counsel for Petitioner(s)                  :   Manish Kumar Pandey
                                    Counsel for Respondent(s)                  :   C.S.C.

                                                     HON'BLE ANISH KUMAR GUPTA, J.

                                    1. This matter is listed peremptorily today. On the last occasion also, the
                                    matter was adjourned on the request made on behalf of the learned
                                    counsel for the petitioner. Today also, learned counsel for the petitioner
                                    submits that he is not in a position to contact his client and it appears
                                    that the grievance of the petitioner might have been resolved, therefore,
                                    he has not tried to contact his counsel.

                                    2. In such view of the matter, the instant petition is dismissed as not
                                    pressed.

                                    3. The petitioner may file the recall application if the cause of action
                                    still survives in the matter.




                                                                                      (Anish Kumar Gupta,J.)
