2. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that since subsequently certain other matters, the writ Court had granted relief to similarly placed persons. The petitioner thought she would withdraw the appeal and approach the Writ Court by way of review. But when she sought a review, the Writ Court had dismissed the same on the ground that the petitioner had not obtained liberty to file a review before this Court while withdrawing the Writ Appeal. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that this happened because of a mistake.

3. We find that the prayer to be very reasonable. If similarly placed persons have succeeded in the writ petition, we don't see any reason to deny the petitioner of a chance. Hence, the order made in the Writ Appeal is clarified to the effect that the petitioner will have liberty to seek review before the learned Single Judge."
