(Order of the Court was made by The Hon'ble Chief Justice) The original applicant before the National Green Tribunal has been permitted to withdraw the petition, but subject to imposition of costs. The petitioner only sought to be impleaded as a party in that petition and at that stage, only notice had been issued on the application and before impleadment, the order has been passed permitting withdrawal of the petition. It is, this order, which is being impugned by the petitioner in the present petition. 2.We are of the view that the National Green Tribunal having exercised its discretion, there is no case made out for exercising jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. If the petitioner wants to make out a case of its own, it is for the petitioner to invoke the jurisdiction with appropriate material. 3.No case made out to interfere with the order impugned. Writ Petition is, accordingly, dismissed. No costs. Consequently, M.P.No.1 of 2015 is also dismissed.
