JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR UPADHYAY ORAL ORDER (Per: HONOURABLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE) 22-08-2017 This application is pending since 1999. It has been filed in the year 1999 and four defects pointed out by the office have not been rectified. Even the records of the case have been destroyed by the High Court as is evident from the original file.

Taking note of the fact that since in the year 1999, the defects pointed out by the office have not been rectified and even the records of the case have been destroyed and learned counsel for the petitioner has no instructions in the matter and prays for further time to seek instructions, we see no reason to keep the matter pending.

Accordingly, the application is disposed of with
