And Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Prince Verma,Ankit Mishra Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C. Hon'ble Saurabh Lavania,J. Heard learned counsel for the parties. In view of order proposed to be passed, issuance of notice to the private-respondent(s) is hereby dispensed with. The present petition has been filed for the following main relief:-
"(I) To direct the opposite party No. 1 i.e. subdivisional Magistrate Tahsil Sadar, Unnao to decide the applications dated 08.01.2025, 15.04.2025, 19.04.2025 and 25.04.2024 within one month and compliance of statuary provision or as it may be directed by this Hon'ble Court in the interest of justice." Learned State Counsel has placed reliance on the judgment passed by this Court in the case of Jay Raj Singh Versus State of U.P. in Writ-C No. 41221 of 2024, on being confronted after taking note of the observation made by this Court in the case of Jay Raj Singh (Supra),
learned Counsel for the petitioner very fairly stated that he may be permitted to withdraw the present petition with liberty to the petitioner to file a suit in terms of Section 144 of U.P. Revenue Code, 2006 (in short 'code of 2006'), which shall be decided expeditiously after taking of the statutory provision as also the fact that petitioner is a senior citizen, aged about 80 years. Accordingly, the present petition is dismissed with liberty as prayed for. It is made clear that this Court has not considered the merits of the case. It is expected from the concerned authority/court, that the suit, if filed, would be decided as per law expeditiously as according to para 458(1) of U.P. Revenue Court Manual, a suit of such nature should preferably be decided within a period of one year.
