                     1.        When the matter was called, it was observed that the Interim Application

                     was not in the proper format. Hence, learned counsel for the Applicant seeks

                     leave to withdraw the Interim Application with liberty to file the same afresh.

                     2.        The Interim Application is accordingly dismissed as withdrawn, with

                     liberty to file the same afresh.




                                                                                    [ARIF S. DOCTOR, J.]
