learned counsel for the petitioner to dismiss the present writ petition as
not pressed with liberty to file a fresh petition with better averments.
2. This prayer has not been opposed by the learned Standing Counsel
appearing on behalf of State-respondents.
3. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed as not pressed with liberty
as prayed.
