On 13.08.2025, there was no representation for the appellant. Accordingly, this appeal was posted to 03.09.2025 under the caption 8for dismissal9. It was again listed on 10.09.2025. On that day also, there was no representation for the appellant. Again, it was posted to today. Today also, there is no representation. Hence, it appears that the appellant has no interest to prosecute the case.
