Present: None for petitioner.
Ms. Niyati Shriparna, Ld. Proxy counsel for respondent
no. 5.
None for respondents no. 1 to 4.
This is the 3rd call since morning.
No-one has appeared on behalf of the applicant despite
repeated calls since morning.
Perusal of record shows that present application is a
contempt petition and is pending for arguments since long.
Further record shows that on LDOH i.e. 28.01.2026, last
and final opportunity is granted to the applicant to pursue the present
petition on merits, however, neither the applicant nor anyone on
behalf of the applicant is present today.
In view the above observation, considering the conduct
of the applicant, it appears that the applicant is not interested in
pursuing the present application, accordingly, the present contempt
application is dismissed and disposed off for non appearance and non
prosecution.
File be consigned to Record Room after due
compliance
