Summary

The petitioners, Harshadkumar Ambalal Patel and others, filed a Special Civil Application No. 3213 of 2020 before the High Court of Gujarat seeking certain permission against the State of Gujarat. The petition was presented by Advocate M. T. Saiyad, who, on his client’s instructions, chose not to press the petition further. The Court, noting the petitioners’ decision not to pursue the matter, granted the sought permission without examining the merits. Consequently, the Court disposed of the petition as withdrawn, discharged the notice, and vacated any interim relief that may have been in place. No order as to costs was made.
