According to the petitioner, the 4th respondent has proposed to take that building on lease for housing their foreign liquor shop. The petitioner has approached this Court because of the delay in taking the building on lease. On 11.4.2007 I directed the counsel for respondents 3 and 4 to file a statement as to whether they intend to shift their shop to the petitioner's premises. A statement has been filed to the effect that they do not intend to shift the shop to the petitioner's premises. Therefore, the petitioner cannot now force respondents 3 and 4 to take the petitioner's building on lease and shift the shop to his building. Accordingly, this writ petition is dismissed.
