Holding

The court may, at its discretion, grant permission to withdraw a civil petition, resulting in its disposal as withdrawn.

Summary

The petitioner, represented by Ms. Rutvi Modi and Mr. Prabhat Singh J. Parmar, sought the court's permission to withdraw the special civil application filed against the respondent. The respondent, Ms. Ashlesha M. Patel, was served notice in the proceedings. The sole issue before the court was whether the petitioner could be allowed to withdraw the petition at this stage. Justice Hemant M. Prachchak, after hearing the counsel, exercised the court's discretion to grant the withdrawal request. Consequently, the petition was disposed of as withdrawn, the notice was discharged, and no order as to costs was made. All pending civil applications related to the matter were also deemed disposed.
