8. Taking into consideration the contents made in the impugned order and the order dated 4.6.2025 passed by the co-ordinate Bench of this Court, I am agreed with the argument as advanced by the learned counsel appearing on behalf of petitioner that since cancellation of the fabricated caste certificate, order has already been stayed by the co- ordinate Bench of this Court, therefore, nothing left for further adjudication in the matter.
9. Accordingly, the instant writ petition is disposed of.
