====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE JAYANANDAN SINGH ORAL ORDER
3 14-08-2012 Learned counsel for the respondents rightly points out from Annexure-4 that the petitioner has no personal interest in the matter and he has filed this writ application as a social activist raising some burning issue.
Clearly the application is in the nature of PIL.
Yesterday, when the case was called out, no one had
appeared for the petitioner. Today also no one appears.
The application is dismissed as not pressed.
