Summary

The petitioners, Shiv Pujan and four others, filed a writ petition (Writ No. 17378 of 2026) before the Allahabad High Court. Their counsel, Chandra Shekhar Singh, informed the court that the petition had become infructuous, meaning there was no longer any relief to be granted. The court considered the submission that the cause of action had ceased to exist. No substantive arguments on the merits were presented. Consequently, the court dismissed the petition as infructuous. The order was pronounced by Justice Manish Kumar Nigam on May 5, 2026.
