From the website of this Court, it appears that W.P.(C) No.13137 of 2009 was dismissed for non-prosecution vide order dated 23rd December, 2019. W.P.(C) No.13138 of 2009 was dismissed for non-compliance of peremptory order. W.P.(C) No.13139 of 2009, wherein the Petitioner had challenged the self- same order as impugned herein, has been allowed vide order dated 17th February, 2021 and the order dated 30th June, 1998 passed by learned Additional District Magistrate, Bhubaneswar was set aside. It further appears that W.P.(C) No.16688 of 2009 has been dismissed for non-prosecution vide order dated 23rd March, 2022. 6. From the above, it appears that the Petitioner herein may not be interested to pursue the writ petition, as the order impugned herein has already been set aside.
