Thereafter, the petition was listed on several dates and sufficient time was granted to comply with the office objections. Despite granting time, office objections are not complied with. A perusal of the entire order sheet reflects that despite granting sufficient opportunities, the office objections are not complied with. Furthermore, the petition is of the year 2020. Now we are in the month of March 2025. The petition is pending for almost five years. As already noted above, when the matter is called, there is no representation on behalf of the petitioners, either personally or through video conferencing. It appears that the petitioners are not interested in prosecuting the petition. Hence, the Writ Petition is dismissed for non- prosecution and also for non-compliance of office objections.
