shall be listed before this Court to dismiss the petition for non-prosecution.

Till date, office objections have not been complied.

Therefore, it appears that petitioners are not interested in prosecuting the petition. In addition to the same, in view of the peremptory order passed on 28.11.2025, this Court has no other option but to dismiss the petition for non-prosecution.

Accordingly, petition is dismissed for non-prosecution.
