COMMON ORDER These matters are listed under the caption "for dismissal", today. There is no representation on the side of the petitioners. On the previous hearing i.e. on 12.12.2019, when these matters were listed under the caption "for dismissal", the learned counsel for the petitioners sought time to get instructions. Since, there is no representation on the side of the petitioners, it can now be inferred that the petitioners in both these writ petitions are not interested to prosecute these Writ Petitions. Accordingly, both these Writ Petitions are dismissed for non prosecution. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
