Even on 30.06.2026, as there was no representation on behalf of the petitioners, the matter was posted to 07.07.2026, under the caption ‘for dismissal’. Today, though the matter is listed under the caption ‘for dismissal’, there was no representation on behalf of counsel for the petitioners. It seems that the petitioners are not evincing any interest in pursuing the matter. In view of the same, this writ petition is dismissed for default. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, Miscellaneous Petitions, if any, pending in this Petition shall stand closed. _____________________ JUSTICE V.SUJATHA 07.07.2026 Gss Whether the order is : Speaking No Reportable No
