THIS WRIT PETITION COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY
HEARING THIS DAY, THE COURT MADE THE FOLLOWING:
ORDER
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the
subject matter of this writ petition is substantially covered by
the judgment of this Court in W.P.No.21114/2021 between
SIRAJ PASHA vs. THE STATE OF KARNATAKA & ANOTHER
disposed off on 25.11.2021, wherein some relief has been
accorded to the litigant therein.
2. Learned AGA on request having accepted notice
for the respondent although opposed the writ petition, is not
in a position to differentiate the fact matrix of the petition
from the one treated in the cognate judgment above.
3. A Division Bench of this Court in W.A.Nos.932-
933/1974 between A.V.VINODA & ANOTHER Vs. STATE OF
KARNATAKA BY ITS COMMISSIONER & SECRETARY,
disposed of on 11.12.1974, has held that the relief granted in
a set of facts in favour of a litigant cannot be denied in
another set of facts wherein the litigant is similarly
circumstanced, in the absence of derogatory factors.
In the above circumstances, this writ petition is
disposed off granting relief to the petitioner as has been
granted in W.P.No.21114/2021 and further the conditions
imposed in Crl.A.No,31/2021 disposed off on 22.10.2021
shall be applicable to the case of the petitioner as well.
Cost made easy.
