Smt. Anita Bai v. State Of Chhattisgarh
Case brief
What is this about?
Chhattisgarh High Court (Bilaspur), WPS No.1413 of 2017, order dated 17.02.2025 by Sanjay S. Agrawal, J. (Single Bench, marked NAFR): writ petition filed in 2017 by Smt. Anita Bai against the State of Chhattisgarh (Panchayat and Rural Development Department), Commissioner Durg Division, Additional Collector Rajnandgaon, CEO Janpad Panchayat Mohla, and Smt. Isho Bai, dismissed for non-prosecution/want of prosecution because no one appeared for the petitioner despite the matter being called twice; Shri Ruhul Ameen, Panel Lawyer, appeared for respondent nos. 1 to 3/State. Purely procedural disposal — no issues adjudicated, no statutes or precedents cited, no quantum involved.
What did the court decide?
Since no one appeared nor made any representation on behalf of the petitioner even when the matter was called in the second round of hearing, the Court had no option but to dismiss the writ petition for non-prosecution.
