Holding

The Court may grant permission to withdraw a petition and therefore disposed of the petition as withdrawn.

Summary

The petitioner, Jeenesh, through his guardian, filed Special Civil Application No. 2514 of 2026 before the High Court of Gujarat seeking permission to withdraw the petition. The petitioner’s counsel, Mr. Manan B. Pandya, submitted an application requesting the Court’s permission for withdrawal. The respondent, Regional Passport Office, was represented by Mr. Pradip D. Bhate. The Court examined the procedural propriety of granting such permission and found no impediment to allowing the withdrawal. Consequently, the Court granted the petitioner's request, disposed of the petition as withdrawn, and discharged the notice without addressing the merits of the underlying dispute.
