Chamanjot Kaur v. State of Punjab & Ors.
Case brief
What is this about?
Dismissal for non-prosecution of two 2015-connected CWP matters heard orally on 12.05.2025 before Justice Harsimran Singh Sethi at Chandigarh. Petitioners Chamanjot Kaur (v. State of Punjab & Ors) and Komalpreet Kaur (v. Punjab State Power Corporation Ltd. and Another) had prayed to be allowed to fill online application forms for the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE). With no appearance for the petitioners over the last two hearings, the court recorded apparent lack of interest and dismissed both petitions; photocopy of the order to be placed on the connected file. No statutes or precedents cited; no relief granted; no quantum involved.
What did the court decide?
The petitions were dismissed because no one appeared on behalf of the petitioners for the last two dates of hearing and it appeared the petitioners were not interested in pursuing them.
