wp6429.13.odt 2 During the pendency of the writ petition, the petitioner has expired. The learned Counsel for the petitioner states that though she had contacted the legal representatives of the petitioner, till date the legal representatives have not approached her for prosecuting the writ petition by substituting their names in place of the deceased petitioner on record.

In view of the fact that the petitioner has expired and his legal representatives are not brought on record till date, the petition would abate. The writ petition is therefore disposed of with no order as to costs. Rule stands discharged.

                  JUDGE                                                                JUDGE
