2. The petition is filed seeking a writ of certiorari to quash the order passed by the Deputy Commissioner. This order is challenged in this writ petition on several grounds as set out in the memorandum of the writ petition. 3. Counsel appearing for the respective parties advanced several contentions. Counsel for the petitioner submits that that the order directing resumption of the land in favor of the Government is wholly untenable. Counsel appearing for respondent Nos.1 and 2 submits the Deputy Commissioner ought to have confirmed the order passed by the Assistant Commissioner and directed resumption of the land in favor of respondents 1 and 2. Urging additional grounds, counsel submits that the writ petition is devoid of merit and is liable to be dismissed. 4.
I have heard the counsel for the parties and carefully perused the material available on record. - 4 -

5. Since this Court has already allowed W.P.No.11613/2024 in favor of the purchasers in respect of the subject property, no further relief survives for consideration in the present writ petition. Accordingly, the writ petition stands dismissed. On dismissal of the Writ Petition, any interim order stands discharged, and any pending interlocutory applications, if any, are disposed of.
