Manohar Reddy, learned Senior Counsel appearing for Respondent No.1. Both parties agreed to dispose of the writ petition as per the understanding of both parties. 2. The petitioner filed M.A.No.412 of 2024 in B.P.No.429 of 2024 seeking modification/recall of the orders dated 20.11.2024 and 04.12.2024, which are in the nature of exparte orders. When the matter came up for consideration, the respondent herein/petitioner before the Tribunal sought for time to file reply to the petition, the Honble Tribunal confirmed the interim order passed order on 20.11.2024 vide order dated 04.12.2024 to make it applicable during pendency of the case without the matter being heard on merits at the interim stage and posted for final hearing of main petitions i.e. B.P.Nos.427, 428 & 429 of 2024, posted to 06.02.2025. While so, the petitioner herein filed M.A.No.412 of 2024 which was listed on 19.12.2024 and before TDSAT, learned counsel for the petitioner therein requested time for filing reply. TDSAT issued notice in the said application granting Respondent No.1 time to file its reply within 06.02.2025, thereby allowing the impugned orders to continue. 3. During hearing, Sri P. Sri Raghuram, learned Senior Counsel for the petitioner and Sri O. Manohar Reddy, learned Senior Counsel appearing for Respondent No.1 mutually agreed to contest M.A.No.412 of 2024 in B.P.No.429 of 2024 before the Hon’ble TDSAT on merits instead of contesting the main petition. Both the parties agreed upon to submit reply along with relevant and necessary documents to the Tribunal. 4. In view of the mutual understanding arrived by and between both the Senior Counsel, this Court deems it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition, without touching the merits of the case, leaving it open to both the parties to contest M.A.No.412 of 2024 in B.P.No.429 of 2024 before the Hon’ble Telecom Disputes Settlement and Appellate Tribunal on merits, which is scheduled for hearing on 06.02.2025. 5. It is further agreed by the respondents herein, that they would file reply on or before 06.02.2025 and they will argue the matter on 06.02.2025 itself without requesting further time, but, as per convenience of the Hon’ble Tribunal. 6. Hence, in view of the above, this Court is inclined to dispose of this writ petition, requesting the Hon’ble Tribunal to hear and dispose of M.A.No.412 of 2024 in B.P.No.429 of 2024 either on 06.02.2025 or on any other early date as per it’s convenience, since both parties agreed to argue the matter on 06.02.2025 itself. 7. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. 8. Consequently, miscellaneous applications pending if any, shall stand closed. ______________________________________ JUSTICE VENKATESWARLU NIMMAGADDA Date:22.01.2025 SP THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE VENKATESWARLU NIMMAGADDA WRIT PETITION NO: 30826/2024 Date:22.01.2025 SP
