BEFORE
HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE HRISHIKESH ROY
02.04.2018
This application for impleadment is filed by 82 litigants, but the applicants’ lawyer is not present in Court. For the same reason, this case was earlier adjourned on 07.02.2018 with the following order:-
“There is none to press this application for impleadment filed by 82 casual workers. On the other hand, Mr. B.J. Talukdar, the learned counsel for the writ petitioners points out that the copy of the impleadment application has not been furnished to him.
In view of above, the case is adjourned by 4(four) weeks.”
In view of above, this Court is left with no option but to dismiss the application for default. It is ordered accordingly.
