Heard learned counsel for appearing for the Parties. 3. Even though the present Writ Petition has been filed inter alia seeking a direction on Opp. Party No.2 to dispose of the proceeding at an early date, but in course of hearing, learned counsel appearing for the Petitioner contended that he may be permitted to withdraw the Writ Petition with liberty to file it at the appropriate time. 4.
