There is no representation for writ petitioner either in the

writ petitioner and learned counsel for writ petitioner, list this matter tomorrow (14.11.2024) under the cause list caption 'FOR

DISMISSAL'.'
2. Captioned matter is listed under the cause list caption 'FOR
DISMISSAL' but the position is no different today. To be noted, there
was one more listing yesterday (14.11.2024).
3. Mr.M.S.Arasakumar, learned State counsel for R1 to R5 is
before us.

petition in spite of sufficient opportunity being given, captioned WP is
dismissed for default. Consequently, captioned WMP thereat is also
dismissed for default. There shall be no order as to costs.
