3. Despite the said order, apparently the Petitioners have not complied with the furnishing of the documents, resulting in the impugned order dated 18.09.2024 being passed. 4.
Without the Petitioners complying with the order passed by this Court and submitting the documents, the question of holding the impugned order to be bad in law does not arise. 5. Reserving liberty to the Petitioners to submit all the necessary documents and making known all the relevant facts, the petition stands disposed. SD/- (SURAJ GOVINDARAJ) JUDGE
