appears to be perverse, since the petitioner (Abhishek Anand @ Vikram Singh) could not appear on the same date before the Court at Delhi as well as Gautam Budh Nagar. Further, Revision Petition preferred by the petitioner against the aforesaid order is stated to have been dismissed by learned ASJ.
Petition is accordingly disposed of. Pending applications, if any, also stand disposed of.
A copy of this order be forwarded to the learned trial court for information.
