¶25

Though the matter has been posted today under the caption 'for dismissal', there was no representation for the petitioner, apart from the earlier hearing on 17.07.2025. There does not appear to be any useful purpose being served in keeping the Civil Revision Petition pending indefinitely, when the petitioner is not interested in prosecuting the same.

¶26

2. In view of the same, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed for non Prosecution. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
