O R D E R

The matter is listed for the third time. There is no representation for the petitioner today. As seen from the earlier proceedings, this Writ Petition came up for hearing on 09.10.2025. On that date, there was no representation for the petitioner and the matter was posted under the caption "for dismissal" on 13.11.2025. On 13.11.2025, learned Counsel for the petitioner had appeared. On that day, counter was also filed by the respondents. Since the counter was not served on the learned Counsel for the petitioner, this Writ Petition was adjourned for hearing today [19.11.2025]. However, there is no representation on the side of the petitioner once again. Since the matter was earlier listed under the caption "for dismissal" and thereafter, the dismissal caption was removed, since the learned Counsel for the petitioner had appeared on the adjourned date and since there is no representation on the side of the petitioner once again today and since this Writ Petition is of the 2/5

year 2022, it can now be inferred that the petitioner is not interested in prosecuting the case.

2.Accordingly, this Writ Petition is dismissed for nonprosecution. There shall be no order as to costs. 19.11.2025 Index :Yes / No Internet : Yes / No NCC : Yes/No MR 3/5
