As already noted above, though matter called twice, there is no representation on behalf of the appellants, either personally or through video conferencing. It appears that the appellants are not interested in prosecuting the appeal. Hence, the Regular Second Appeal is dismissed for non-prosecution. Sd/- JUDGE MRP List No.: 2 Sl No.: 4
