matters are remitted back to the High Court to decide and dispose of the main writ
petitions afresh in accordance with law and on their own merits on other issues
except the applicability of Section 24(2) of the Act, 2013. We request the High
Court to finally decide and dispose of the writ petitions on remand at the earliest
and preferably within a period of nine months from the date of receipt of the
present order. All contentions and defences which are available to the respective
parties are kept open to be considered by the High Court in accordance with law
and on their own merits (except the submission of applicability of Section 24(2) of

In such view of the matter, the appeals are allowed. Accordingly, the
impugned orders stand set aside and the matters are remitted to the High Court to
be decided on the issues other than the one covering the field in Indore
Development Authority (supra).
No costs."
2. After arguing for some time, the learned counsel for the
petitioners seeks leave to withdraw the instant writ petition.
3. Leave granted.
4. Consequently, the extant writ petition is dismissed as
withdrawn but with a direction to the respondent concerned, to most
expeditiously finalize the allotment process under the R & R policy but
subject to apposite compliances being made by the petitioners to all the
relevant terms and conditions, if not already made.
