P.C. P.C. : : : . When this matter was placed before me, none appeared on behalf of the Plaintiffs to oppose the Chamber Summons. The Suit is pending in this Court from 1998. From the record it is clear that the Plaintiffs have not proceeded with the Suit till this date. Even issues are not framed. The property has changed hands and several parties have been impleaded as Defendants during the pendency of the Suit. However, it is clear that the Plaintiffs have remained absent on all earlier occasions when this Chamber Summons was before the Court. They were served with the Chamber Summons and an affidavit proving :2: service has been filed on 20th November 2008. Despite receipt of the copy of the Chamber Summons and the affidavit in support, none is appearing today for the Plaintiffs. The appearance of the Plaintiffs’ Advocate is shown on board. 2. In these circumstances, the Suit is dismissed for want of prosecution. As the Suit itself is dismissed, then, the Chamber Summons does not survive and is accordingly dismissed. (S.C. (S.C. (S.C.
