Disposal
Disposed off as Withdrawn

Holding

The Court granted leave to withdraw the writ petition, resulting in its disposal and rendering the related civil application infructuous.

Summary

The petitioners filed a writ petition before the Bombay High Court seeking relief against the respondents. During the proceedings, the petitioners, through counsel, applied for leave to withdraw the petition. The Court examined the request and, finding no impediment, granted leave to withdraw. Consequently, the writ petition was disposed of as withdrawn. In view of the withdrawal, the related civil application filed in the same matter was deemed infructuous and also disposed of. No substantive merits of the original dispute were addressed as the petition was withdrawn.
