                                  2. It appears from the record that due to inadvertence,

                      mentioned as order no.2 and the order dated 22.01.2026 has

                      been mentioned as order no. 3. Let the same be read as order

                      nos. 2, 3 and 4 respectively.

                                  3. At the outset, the learned counsel for the petitioner

                      seeks permission to withdraw the writ petition.

                                  4. The permission, so sought for, is accorded.

                                  5. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed as

                      withdrawn.
