On 15th December, 2004, while entertaining the writ petition, this Court granted an interim order by virtue of which the proceedings of Suit No. 192 of 1999, which is involved in the instant writ petition was kept in abeyance. The order-sheet reveals that despite of the writ petition being entertained no steps have been taken but ultimately in pursuance to the order of this Court passed on 17.07.2017 the petitioners were directed to serve ‘dasti’ on respondent no.1. The requisites were provided by the Registry on 24.07.2017 and Mr. Neeraj Garg, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that an effort was made to serve upon the respondent no.1 but it could not be served. Rather a report has come that he is not residing at the given address. Mr. Neeraj Garg has placed an affidavit of service on record during the course of the argument of the writ petition. The same is taken on record.
