ORDER
08.05.2024
No one appears for the petitioner on call.
Mr. B. Choudhury, learned counsel appears for the APDCL, while Mr. A.K. Gupta, learned counsel appears for the respondent no.6.
It is noticed that none had appeared for the petitioner on the last three consecutive dates also. Thus, it appears that the petitioner is not interested in pursuing the matter.
The writ petition is accordingly dismissed for non-prosecution.
