When the matter was listed for hearing on 02.12.2025, none appeared on behalf of the petitioners. Thus, this Court passed an order, directing the Registry to list the matter on 03.12.2025 under the caption "For Dismissal".

2. Even today i.e., on 03.12.2025, when the matter is taken up for hearing, none appeared for the petitioners. Thus, it is evident that the petitioners are not interested in pursuing the matter. Accordingly, the Writ Petition in W.P.No.25172 of 2023 stands dismissed for non-prosecution. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed. (S.M.S.,J.)
