None appears on behalf of the Petitioners on call.
2. It is also seen that on various occasions, the Petitioners have been asked to take steps upon the private Respondents,
Page No.# 8/8 but the Petitioners have not taken such steps.
3. This Court also takes note of the grievance of the Petitioners in the present batch of writ petitions and taking into account the Targeted Public Distribution System (Control) Order, 2015 and the manner in which the Authorized Agency is required to distribute, nothing remains in the present batch of the writ petitions to be decided. It therefore appears that the Petitioners have lost interest in the present batch of writ petitions.
4. Accordingly the present batch of writ petitions stands dismissed for non-prosecution.
