GHULAM HASSAN BHAT(SENIOR CITIZEN) ……...Petitioner(s) Through: None Versus UNION TERRITORY OF J AND K AND ORS. (PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT). .……Respondent(s) Through: Mr. Illyas Laway, GA. CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE WASIM SADIQ NARGAL, JUDGE ORDER 28.04.2026 1. The record reveals that there was no representation on behalf of the petitioner on 03.05.2024, 15.07.2024 and 27.05.2025. Thereafter, when the matter was listed on 24.02.2026, Mr. Ateeb Kanth, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner, sought one week’s time to file the power of attorney. However, neither the power of attorney has been filed nor is there any appearance on behalf of the petitioner today. Thus, an inference can be drawn that the petitioner is not interested in prosecuting the matter any further. 2. Accordingly, the instant petition is dismissed for non- prosecution. 3. Interim direction, if any, shall stand vacated. (WASIM SADIQ NARGAL) JUDGE Srinagar 28.04.2026 Sakeena
