Courts that by December 2025 all the matters pending till 2019 shall be disposed off.
3. In that view of the matter, it is not appropriate for this court to direct the Family Court to dispose of the matter which is of the year 2023 and with regard to personal problems raised by the petitioner in every matrimonial case, the parties will have one concern or the other and that cannot be a ground to direct the Family Court to dispose of the case. Hence, this court finds no reasons to direct the Family Court.
4. In the light of above discussion, this court is passing the following:
ORDER i. The writ petition is dismissed. ii. All pending I.As., in the writ petition shall stand closed.
