Summary

The petitioners, Jitendra Manohar Ahire and others, filed a writ petition (No. 10810 of 2026) in the Bombay High Court against the Union of India and others. The petition was pending before a bench comprising Justice Ravindra V. Ghuge and Justice Gautam A. Ankhd. The petitioners, through their counsel, sought the Court's permission to withdraw the petition on instructions. The Court noted its disinclination to further examine the impugned order but entertained the request to withdraw. Consequently, the Court disposed of the petition as withdrawn, without any substantive adjudication on the merits.
