     THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD        ON
18.01.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
 WPC 36401/10
                                      2


                                 JUDGMENT

I notice that this writ petition has been

pending on the files of this Court for the last

more than 10 years without any interim order

having been issued, except interdicting recovery

of amounts from the petitioner.

2. This matter has been listed at least

twice during the last one week, but the learned

counsel for the petitioner is unable to inform

this Court whether the petitioner is alive,

particularly because he was aged 71 at the time

when this Writ Petition was filed, and whether

any developments have taken place during the last

10 years.

In the afore circumstances, I dismiss this

Writ Petition for non-prosecution; however, also

for the reason that it appears to have become

infructuous at this point of time.
