- Decided
Holding
The writ petition is dismissed as not pressed.
Summary
The petitioner, Panna Lal, filed a writ petition before the Allahabad High Court against the State of Uttar Pradesh and nine other respondents. The petition sought dismissal on the ground that it was not pressed. The petitioner’s counsel, Sachin Kumar Sharma, specifically prayed for dismissal as not pressed, and the learned Standing Counsel, Abhishek Kumar Srivastava, raised no objection to this prayer. The Court examined the petition and found that it indeed lacked the requisite press, i.e., it was not a live or substantive grievance. Consequently, the Court dismissed the writ petition as not pressed. The order was pronounced by Hon’ble Justices Atul Sreedharan and Siddharth Nandan on 19 March 2026.
