In this conspectus, as above, no useful purpose would be served by keeping this matter pending. Accordingly, this Court deems it appropriate to finally dispose of the present writ petition, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, with liberty to the present petitioner to move a Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : Akash Kishan, Ashok Kumar Gupta Counsel for Respondent(s) : Akhilesh Kumar, C.S.C.
