ORAL ORDER

There is no representation for the petitioner even on the second call.

Despite, the petitioner has not paid process fee and not furnished the petition copy along with all annexures and documents to issue notice to respondent No.2. Since the petition is of the year 2024, it seems that the petitioner is not interested in prosecuting the petition. Hence, left with no other option, the petition is dismissed for non- prosecution. Registry to communicate this order to the concerned Trial Court.
