Holding

The writ petition was dismissed for non‑prosecution as the petitioner withdrew the petition.

Summary

The petitioner, Tarachand Yamaji Mitkar, filed a writ petition (902 WRIT PETITION NO. 14457 OF 2023) before the Bombay High Court, Aurangabad Bench, challenging actions of the State of Maharashtra. The respondent State was represented by Shri S. R. Wakale, Additional Government Pleader. On 14 January 2026, the petitioner’s counsel filed a pre‑acipe seeking withdrawal of the petition, indicating the petitioner no longer wished to pursue the matter. The Court noted the withdrawal and, finding no further interest from the petitioner, dismissed the writ petition for non‑prosecution. The dismissal was entered without any substantive consideration of the merits, as the petition was voluntarily withdrawn.

                             2.       Preacipe is circulated on 14.01.2026 by the learned Advocate for
                             the petitioner for withdrawal. It appears that, the petitioner is not
                             interested in pursuing the writ petition further. Hence, the Writ Petition
                             is dismissed for non-prosecution.
