Summary
The petitioner, Jitendra Singh B.

The petitioner’s counsel, Mr. Khan Javed Akhtar, moved the court for such leave. The respondent, Chabildas D. Bhayani, was represented by Mr. Jayesh Patel. The court considered whether it could permit a withdrawal with liberty to re‑assert the claim later. Finding no impediment, the court dismissed the writ petition as withdrawn, granting the requested liberty. Consequently, the petition stands withdrawn but the petitioner may raise the issue again in the future.
