Court No. - 34
Case :- WRIT - A No. - 40357 of 2001 Petitioner :- Laxmi Narain Saxena & Another Respondent :- Director Local Bodies U.P. Lucknow & Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Pradeep Saxena,V.M.Sharma Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C.
Hon'ble Sudhir Agarwal,J.
1. Called in revise. None appeared to press this writ petition. Learned Standing Counsel is present for respondents. In the circumstances, I myself have perused the record.
2. By means of present writ petition, petitioners have sought following reliefs:
“i) issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of certiorari to quashing the impugned orders dated 20.01.2007, 28.7.2001 and 10.08.2001 passed by the respondents authorities (Annexure no.7, 10 and 12 to the writ petition).
ii) issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents authorities not to take any work of tax collection and assessment etc. from the petitioner, till the disposal of the present writ petition.”
3. I myself have gone through the pleadings, grounds as also reliefs sought and find that petitioners are not able to make out a case so as to justify interference of this Court by granting reliefs, as prayed for.
4. Moreover, it appears that either the cause of action no more survives or the petitioners have lost interest in this matter or it has otherwise become infructuous and, probably for this reason, none is interested to have decided this matter on merits and that is why, counsel for petitioners is absent.
5. Dismissed. Interim order, if any, stands vacated.
