None appears for the petitioner.

The petitioner had obviously sufficient time to make shifting. Therefore, nothing survives for further consideration. This writ petition stands dismissed as infructuous. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. 17.07.2023 NCC : Yes / No Index : Yes / No Internet : Yes / No PMU 2/4
