Sr. No.1 (xii) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JAMMU & KASHMIR AND LADAKH AT SRINAGAR OWP 589/2016 DR. NAZIR AHMAD NAQASH AND ANOTHER …Petitioner(s)/appellant(s) Through: None Vs. STATE OF JK AND ORS EXECUTIVE ENG. ...Respondent(s) Through: Mr. Mohsin S. Qadri, Sr. AAG Ms. Maha Majeed, Assisting Counsel Mr. Jahangir Ahmad Dar, GA CORAM: HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJNESH OSWAL, JUDGE O R D E R 14-05-2025 Record shows that the matter is pending since 2015. Neither the petitioner nor anyone on their behalf has been appearing to pursue the petition. It appears that with the efflux of time, the matter has lost its efficacy and as a result the petitioners too have lost interest. The matter has been called out twice, but none is present to render assistance. That being so, the Court is choiceless but to dismiss the petition for non prosecution. However, in the event any cause of action/interest/dispute still survives, the petitioner is at liberty to move an appropriate application seeking restoration of the petition and for necessary orders.
