2. When the matter is taken up for hearing, learned counsel for the respondents has submitted that though she has entered appearance on behalf of the respondents on 03.07.2025, on filing a change of vakalath, her name was not printed in the cause list on that day and therefore, the previous counsel's name has been typed in the order dated 03.07.2025. Hence, the cause title in respect of the appearance of the learned counsel for the respondents requires modification.
3. Finding that there was an inadvertent error in marking the appearance of the learned counsel for the respondents, Registry is directed to print the name of Mrs.K.Jenitha, learned counsel for the respondents in the place of Mr.P.Rajesh in the cause title and issue a fresh copy of the order to the parties concerned.
4. Except the above modification, remaining portion of the order dated 03.07.2025 stands unaltered.
