DATE : 7th AUGUST, 2019
P.C.
1] The Petition is loosely drafted. The exact grievance is not emerging. Counsel seeks leave to withdraw the Public Interest Petition with liberty to file a fresh Petition but after making proper pleadings. Granting liberty as prayed for, the Petition is dismissed as not pressed. Office to return the deposit made as per rules.
2] Needless to state all pending Civil Applications are disposed of as infructuous.
