Dibrugarh, District – Dibrugarh, Assam, Pin – 786001 is the registered nominee. 3. The instant interlocutory application is preferred seeking impleadment of the afore- mentioned registered nominee as a party-respondent in the accompanying writ petition. As without the presence of the proposed party-respondent the adjudication of the writ petition would not be proper and effective, the instant interlocutory application seeking impleadment of the afore-stated proposed party-respondent no. 3 is allowed. 4. The learned counsel for the petitioner is to submit an amended Cause-Title in terms of Notification no. 79 dated 19.06.2023 within 3 [three] working days from today.
