ORDER
Though the matter has been posted under the caption 'for dismissal', there was no representation for the Petitioner when the matter was called at 11.00 a.m. today, apart from the earlier hearing on 05.01.2023. There does
not appear to be any useful purpose being served in keeping the Writ Petition pending indefinitely when the Petitioner is not interested in prosecuting the same.
In such circumstances, the Writ Petition is dismissed for non-prosecution. It is made clear that the Petitioner is not precluded from 2/4
W.P. (MD) No. 4501 of 2015
applying for revival of the Writ Petition, if necessary, in accordance with law.
No costs. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petitions are closed.
