Learned standing counsel appearing on behalf of the State as well as learned counsel for the Gaon Sabha has raised a preliminary objection regarding the maintainability of the writ petition on the ground that the instant writ petition has been filed by Sri Shrwan Kumar in the capacity of the member of the Gaon Sabha. He submits that there is nothing on record to show any resolution by the Gram Sabha or authority in favour of the petitioner authorising him to file the present writ petition through a private counsel. 4. In view of the clear provisions under Rule 72 of the U.P. Revenue Code Rules, 2016, the petitioner is not competent to file the present writ petition espousing the cause of the Gaon Sabha without any authorisation. 5. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner, after arguing the matter at some length, prays for and is allowed to withdraw the present writ petition. 6. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed as withdrawn. Order Date :- 5.3.2025 Arif Digitally signed by :- MOHAMMAD ARIF High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
