Despite filing a rectification application on 25.07.2023, the petitioner claimed no action had been taken, preventing an appeal.The respondent, represented by Ms. K.Vasanthamala, contended that the petitioner failed to respond to several reminders for a personal hearing, justifying the issuance of the impugned order.The Court, after reviewing the submissions and records, found no need to interfere with the impugned order, noting that adequate notice for a hearing was given. However, the Court directed the respondent to address the rectification application within 15 days and allowed the petitioner to file an appeal if desired. The writ petitions were disposed of with these directions, and related miscellaneous petitions were closed.
