SHRI SAGAR PARECHAversusSTATE OF UP AND 4 OTHERS

Decided

Holding

The writ petition is dismissed as it is covered by the earlier order dated 28 July 2026.

Summary

The petitioner, Shri Sagar Parecha, filed a writ petition (Writ‑C No. 34682 of 2026) challenging an order. The petitioner’s counsel submitted that the issues raised were already decided in the order dated 28 July 2026 disposing of Writ‑C No. 27622 of 2026 (Shri Jitendra Pratap Singh Yadav v. State of U.P. and 4 others). The State, represented by the Chief Standing Counsel, accepted that the present petition was covered by that earlier order. The Court held that the present petition could not proceed independently and therefore dismissed it as covered, while staying the operation of the impugned order until 10 October 2026 to allow the appellate authority to consider the petitioner’s stay application. The Court directed the petitioner to forward a certified copy of the order to the Commissioner/Appellate Authority by 24 September 2026 and permitted parties to rely on the website copy in the interim.

  • The petition is barred by a prior order disposing of a similar writ.
  • The Court’s jurisdiction to stay the impugned order pending appellate review.

  • writ petition
  • stay order
