-BEFORE-

HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE KARDAK ETE

16-03-2023

Learned Advocate General of Assam submitted that rather than pressing this application for stay of the impugned judgment and order dated 27.06.2022, it would be better to hear the appeal finally.

In view of the above submission, this interlocutory application is dismissed as withdrawn.

The connected writ appeal as well as the contempt petition be listed for final disposal on 28.04.2023.
