Petitioner - Prince Sharma, through present writ, has prayed for issuance of a writ in the nature of Certiorari, to quash the order dated 26.07.2022 (Annexure P-2), conveyed through letter dated 17.08.2022, passed by respondent No.2 i.e. Principle Secretary, Department of Industries & Commerce, Govt. of Punjab, whereby, the order passed by learned Director of Industries, Punjab (respondent No.3), has been reversed and private Company has been granted the permission to lift three Injection Moulding machines along with its supporting machines. 2.
Court is informed that by challenging the same order, one Sameeer Sharma, filed CWP-20680-2022, which was dismissed by the Hon'ble Single Bench of this Court (Punjab and Haryana High Court), and thereafter, the order of dismissal was challenged by way of LPA-822-2022, which was later on withdrawn by the appellant therein, vide order dated

Mr. Ramandeep Singh Pandher, Sr. DAG, Punjab. Mr. Ashwani Talwar, Advocate for respondents No.6 & 7.
* * * On 28.09.2022, a learned Single Judge of this Court had passed the following order :- "Learned counsel for the petitioner has pointed out that against an order passed by this Bench, regarding transfer of some machines, an LPA No.822 of 2022 is already pending before the Division Bench. This writ petition is also connected to the said matter directly. Hence, this petition deserves to be heard by the same Division Bench.
In view of the above fact, let the matter be placed before the same Division Bench."
In view of the above order, this petition was listed before a Division Bench. However, LPA No.822 of 2022 stands withdrawn. Therefore, after obtaining appropriate orders from Hon'ble the Chief Justice, let this petition be listed on 10.10.2023 before a learned Single Judge, as per roster.
