No representation even when the matter is passed over twice and again called in the afternoon session. The order sheet dated 28.10.2024 reads as under: "Learned counsel for the petitioners is absent. There is no representation. The petition is of the year 2021. The matter is listed for third time for compliance of office objections. Inspite of that the office objections are not complied with. I do not find any reason to adjourn the matter. However, to afford a final opportunity, a week's time is granted to comply with the office objections. List this matter after one week." Inspite of that, there is no progress in the matter. The petition is of the year 2021. The office objections are not complied with even though the matter is listed for 4th time. It appears that the petitioners are not interested in prosecuting the petition. Hence, the petition is dismissed for non-compliance of office objections. Sd/- (M G UMA) JUDGE SPV List No.: 1 Sl No.: 6
