Ajay Mohan Goel, Judge (Oral)
By way of this petition, the petitioners are
assailing Annexure P-15, dated 24.09.2014, in terms whereof
the revision petition filed by the petitioners was not
entertained on the grounds mentioned therein.
1 Whether reporters of the local papers may be allowed to see the judgment?
2. Taking into consideration the fact that the Writ
petition itself was filed in the month of May, 2023, assailing
.
order of the year 2014, the Court asked learned Counsel for
the petitioners to explain this inordinate delay in approaching
the Court.
3. Faced with this situation, learned Counsel for the
petitioners, on instructions, submits that petitioners may be
permitted to withdraw the petition and liberty be granted to
the petitioners to avail such other remedy, as may be
available to them in law.
4. This is seriously opposed by learned Senior
Counsel appearing for the private respondents who states
that not only filing of this belated petition is abuse of the
process of law but any such liberty granted by the Court will
be again abused by the petitioners.
5. Be that as it may, taking into consideration the
prayer made by learned Counsel for the petitioners, the
petition is permitted to be withdrawn.
6. It goes without saying that in case the petitioner
has any other legal remedy, then withdrawal of this petition
shall not be an impediment qua it but this will be subject to
all just and legal exceptions.
The petition stand disposed of in above terms, so
also pending miscellaneous application(s), if any.
