Therefore, it is submitted that the instant petition is nothing but a gross misuse of process of law and therefore, the same may be dismissed.

At this juncture, the learned counsel for the petitioners, on instructions, prayed for leave to withdraw the instant petition with liberty to file the same afresh while giving an undertaking to disclose therein all the requisite particulars and documents in accordance with law.
