On 28.01.2019, none had appeared in this case and learned counsel for the petitioner was directed to take steps to serve the unserved respondents and the case was adjourned for 26.04.2019.

The case was adjourned for 07.08.2019 with a direction that the needful be done in the context of serving unserved respondents before the adjourned date i.e. 07.08.2019. On 07.08.2019, the following order was passed: "Notice of motion was issued on 28.09.2018.

On 28.01.2019, none appeared on behalf of the petitioner and the Court passed the order that petitioner may take steps to serve the unserved respondents as per office report. The case was adjourned to 26.04.2019. The compliance of order dated 28.01.2019 was not made even upto 26.04.2019, but in the interest of justice, the case was adjourned for today.

As per office report, learned counsel for the petitioner has not taken any step to serve the unserved respondents till date.

Faced with this situation and owing to the prevailing situation in the bar association, the case is further adjourned to 13.12.2019.

In the meanwhile, petitioner if so advised may take steps to serve the unserved respondents in accordance with law, failing which appropriate order shall be passed on the adjourned date."

Evidently, no steps have been taken by the learned counsel for the petitioner to serve the unserved respondents. Today, learned counsel for the respondents states that even the suit has been decided by the Trial Court on merits.

-3In view of above, this revision petition has been rendered infructuous.

Ordered accordingly.
