Mr. Md.

In view thereof, nothing further survives in the writ

petition.

Learned counsel for the petitioner prays for withdrawal of the writ petition with liberty to the petitioner to file revision under Rule 12 of the Taxation and Finance Rules. Writ Petition is disposed of as withdrawn with liberty as prayed.

Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any, also stand disposed of.
