Heard Mr.Amit Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner as well as Mr.Shashank Thakur, learned Deputy Advocate General appearing for respondents No.1 to 3/State. 2. The present writ petition has been filed by the petitioner with the following reliefs:- “10.1 That, this Hon’ble Court may kindly be pleased to allow the present writ petition preferred by the petitioner and call for the records pertaining to the present case. 10.2 That, this Hon’ble Court may kindly be pleased to issue an appropriate writ/order, thereby directing the respondent No.3 not to harass the petitioner in the name of interrogation. 10.3 That, this Hon’ble Court may kindly be pleased to direct the respondents No.1 & 2 to take appropriate action against the erring police personnel of Police Station, Marwahi, District- Gaurela Pendra Marwahi unnecessarily harassing the petitioner. 10.4 That, any other relief/order which may deem fit and just in the facts and circumstances of the case including award of the cost of the petition may be given.” 3. From perusal of the prayers and pleadings made in the instant petition, it transpires that the petitioner has prayed for directing respondent No.3 not to harass the petitioner in the name of 3 interrogation without mentioning the particulars as to how the police is harassing the petitioner, which goes to show that the prayer drafted by learned counsel for the petitioner is in a very casual manner and further wasted the precious time of the Court, as such, in the opinion of this Court, the prayer is defective one. 4. Accordingly, the instant writ petition is dismissed on this ground alone with liberty to file afresh petition with appropriate prayer, subject to depositing a sum of Rs.2,000/- as cost by the petitioner in the Registry of this Court within a period of one week from today and the same shall be transmitted to the Government School for Visual and Hearing Impaired, Tifra, District - Bilaspur (C.G.). 5. Certified copy of the documents annexed with this petition shall be returned to the counsel for the petitioners after retaining the photocopies of the same.
