O R D E R
Though the matter has been posted under the caption "For Dismissal", there is no appearance on behalf of the petitioner. Perhaps, foreseeing the fate of the case, the petitioner has not come before this Court.
14.06.2014 to the respondent, not to disturb his peaceful possession. However, no orders were passed on the same. Hence, the petitioner filed the present writ petition.
