THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 17.11.2022, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:

WP(C) NO. 30438 OF 2003

-3-

JUDGMENT

When this matter was called today, there was

no appearance for the petitioners; but I am of the view that, going by the reliefs sought for and the efflux of more than 20 years when this matter has been pending, nothing survives in this writ petition.

I, therefore, dismiss this writ petition for

default; however, finding it has become

infructuous.
