CORAM : DR.D.Y.CHANDRACHUD AND A.A.SAYED, JJ. DATE : 23 January 2013 3 of 3 WP.2663.1994 & BATCH PC : 1. This batch of petitions has been remanded back for reconsideration by a judgment of the Supreme Court dated 8 August 2011 in Civil Appeal No.6470-6479 of 2011. Both on the previous occasions (16 January 2013) and today, there is no appearance for the Petitioners. 2. In the interest of justice and since the petitions are now coming up after the order of remand, the learned senior counsel appearing on behalf of the Respondents has fairly agreed to the suggestion of the Court that an advocate's notice be served on the Petitioners together with a copy of this order in order to enable the Petitioners to take steps to pursue these proceedings. The Petitioners are placed on notice that if steps are not taken to pursue these proceedings, the Court would be constrained to dismiss the petitions for want of prosecution. 3. The hearing of the petitions shall stand over to 6 February 2013. (DR.D.Y.CHANDRACHUD, J.) (A.A.SAYED, J.) MST
