HIGH COURT OF JAMMU & KASHMIR AND LADAKH AT SRINAGAR (Through Virtual Mode) WP(C) No.226/2024 Masrat Jan and another …..Petitioner/Appellant(s) Through: None. Vs Union Territory of J&K and others .…. Respondent(s) Through: None. Coram: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE WASIM SADIQ NARGAL, JUDGE ORDER 22.07.2026 1. The record reveals that the matter was listed before this Court on 26.12.2025, 25.03.2026 and 30.06.2026. On each of the aforesaid dates, there was no representation on behalf of the petitioners. 2. Nevertheless, considering the peculiar facts and circumstances of the case, particularly as the matter was taken up through virtual mode, this Court deemed it appropriate to grant one further opportunity to the learned counsel for the petitioners to cause appearance, while making it clear that in the event of continued non-appearance, appropriate orders would be passed. Today, when the matter was taken up for consideration, none has appeared on behalf of the petitioners despite the matter having been called. It appears that the petitioners have lost interest in prosecuting the instant petition which is, accordingly, dismissed for non-prosecution along with all connected application(s). 3. Interim direction, if any, shall stand vacated. (Wasim Sadiq Nargal) Judge Jammu 22.07.2026 Shammi Sr. No. 06
