Sandhawalia, Chief Justice. Hon’ble Mr. Justice Bipin Chander Negi, Judge. Whether approved for reporting?1 For the appellant: Mr. Vishwa Bhushan, Advocate. For the respondents : Mr. Gobind Korla, Additional Advocate General. G.S. Sandhawalia, Chief Justice (Oral) After arguing for some time, counsel for the appellant submits that keeping in view the fact that there is already an earlier litigation pending regarding the same suspension order dated 03.07.2020 and, as observed by the learned Single Judge, the proceedings stand stayed, the impugned judgment loses its efficacy. He, therefore, does not wish to press the present appeal. Rather, he further submits that he wishes to withdraw the writ petition filed before the learned Single Judge and avail his remedy in accordance with law. 1Whether the reporters of the local papers may be allowed to see the Judgment? Yes -2- 2. Accordingly, learned counsel for the State has no objection, and the same is dismissed as withdrawn. Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, also stand disposed of. (G.S. Sandhawalia) Chief Justice (Bipin Chander Negi) Judge 17th August, 2026 (Tarun)
