the Court to move necessary application before the competent authority for release of the amount of compensation and/or enhancement of the amount of compensation as also to seek benefit of rehabilitation policy of the Government.
4. Accordingly, all the writ petitions are dismissed as withdrawn with the aforesaid liberty. If the petitioners applications are not decided, it will remain open for them to take recourse of such remedy, as is available to them in law.
