Holding
The petition is non‑maintainable and is dismissed.
Summary
Smt. Soniya Kumari and another filed Writ Petition No. 39578 of 2026 in the Allahabad High Court against the State of Uttar Pradesh and three others. The petitioners sought relief, but the respondent counsel pointed out that the same dispute had already been registered as case MU‑0‑A‑0‑S 305/2026 under Section 87 of the B.N.S. at Etmadadula police station, Agra district. The Court examined the pleadings and the claim of pendency. Relying on the principle that a matter already pending before a competent authority cannot be re‑invoked through a fresh writ petition, the Court held the petition non‑maintainable. Consequently, the writ petition was dismissed.
