ORDER

(made by M. SUNDAR, J.) After some arguments, Mr. A.

In the light of the narrative thus far, captioned WP is disposed of as withdrawn/closed albeit with preservation of rights and contentions of writ petitioner for filing a PIL on the same issue, if so advised and if so desired. There shall be no order as to costs. (M.S., J.) (K.G.T., J.) 04.02.2025 Index : Yes/No NC : Yes/No cad 3/4
