1 Sl. No. 11 IN THE HIGH COURT OF MANIPUR AT IMPHAL WA No.48 of 2020 K Heera Kabui Appellant Vs. State of Level Gaan Ngai Celebration Committee & 3 Ors. Respondents BEFORE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. M. SUNDAR HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AHANTHEM BIMOL SINGH (ORDER) (Order of the Court was made by Mr. M. Sundar, CJ) 09.12.2025 [1] In the hearing today, Mr. I. Lalitkumar, learned senior advocate instructed by Ms. Alina, learned counsel on record for sole appellant, Mr. BP Sahu, learned senior counsel instructed by Mr. CH. Robinchandra, learned counsel for respondent No.1 and Mr. S. Nepolean, learned senior Government Advocate and senior advocate instructed by Mr. Robert, learned Deputy Government Advocate on record for respondent Nos. 2 to 4 are before this Court. [2] After some arguments, Ms. Alina, learned counsel on record for the appellant sought leave of this Court to withdraw the captioned writ appeal and made a further plea to preserve all the rights and contentions of the appellant qua WP(C)No.61 of 2025 in which the appellant has filed an JOHN TELEN KOM Digitally signed by JOHN TELEN KOM Date: 2025.12.10 13:38:50 +05'30' 2 implead petition being MC(WP(C))No. 479 of 2025 as well as pending case/s in this Court (if any) on this subject in which the appellant is a party. To be noted, this WP(C)No.61 of 2025 along with MC(WP(C))No.479 of 2025 is now pending in this Court and a Hon’ble Single Bench is seized of the matter. Suffice to write that in WP(C)No.61 of 2025, Revised Guidelines For Grant-In-Aid For Organizing State Level Gaan-Ngai Celebration dated 07.01.2025 published in the Government Gazette on 22.01.2025 making modifications to Guidelines dated 12.10.2021 published in the Government Gazette on 22.10.2021 has been assailed with further prayers inter-alia seeking compliance qua 12.10.2021 Guidelines. It is not necessary to delve more into these details as a Hon’ble Single Bench is seized of the matter. [3] The endorsement made by the learned counsel on record for the sole appellant in the case file is as follows: 3 [4] Request of the learned counsel on record for sole appellant is acceded to. [5] Ergo, the sequitur is, captioned writ appeal is disposed of as withdrawn/closed albeit with preservation of rights and contentions of appellant qua WP(C)No.61 of 2025, MC(WP(C))No. 479 of 2025 thereat and pending case/s in this Court (if any) on this subject in which the appellant is a party. Though obvious, we make it clear that Hon’ble Single Bench will now consider the matter on its own merits and in accordance with law untrammeled by instant withdrawal. [6] There shall be no order as to costs. JUDGE CHIEF JUSTICE John Kom
