None appears for the petitioner when the matter is called.
Page No.# 2/2
The matter is of the year 2016 and it is seen that the petitioner has failed to take appropriate steps in the matter. It therefore appears that the issue raised is no longer alive.
Be that as it may, the matter stands dismissed for default.
