None appeared on behalf of the petitioners even in the revised call whereas Shri Ashwani Kumar Tripathi, learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel for the State-respondents is present. 2.

Vide order dated 26.07.2024, interim protection was granted to the petitioners; thereafter the case again listed on 19.09.2024 but on that date neither the counsel for the petitioners was present nor any adjournment slip was moved on behalf of the petitioners. 4. Learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel, on the basis of instructions, states that on police verification it's revealed that the petitioner no.1-Mithlesh is already married and therefore, without obtaining decree of divorce she has no legal right to be live in live- in-relationship with petitioner no.2, therefore, learned Standing Counsel submits that the instant writ petition has been filed seeking protection on the basis of false averments. The petitioners have not approached with clean hands, therefore, the writ petition deserves to be dismissed with cost. 5.
