Today also, there is a request made on behalf of the petitioner to further adjourn the matter on the ground that the petitioner is a Senior Citizen and a rejoinder is to be filed. 4. It appears that a copy of the reply dated 27.08.2019 is received by the petitioner on 05.09.2019 and time and again this Court has accommodated the learned advocate for the petitioner. On the last occasion as well, reluctantly, this Court had adjourned the matter on the assurance of Mr.Mangukiya, learned advocate for the petitioner that the matter would be conducted on the next date of hearing. 5. In light of the aforesaid orders and considering the fact that the matter pertains to the year 2018, this Court has declined the request of the learned advocate for the petitioner to adjourn the matter. 6. Hence, the present petition is dismissed for non- prosecution. Notice is discharged. 7. It is hereby observed that if any restoration application will be filed by the petitioner in this petition, same shall be entertained by the Court on imposing appropriate condition, including cost.
