NIA …for the NIA In this application the petitioners have challenged the respective notices sent to them under Section 179 of the BNSS dated 11th April, 2026. The contention made by learned Counsel for the petitioners, Mr. Banerejee is that the petitioners have been made accused in the said proceeding and, therefore, the notices under Section 179 of the BNSS have got no application in respect of the present petitioners. Learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the NIA submits that they want to withdraw the said notices under Section 179 of the BNSS dated 11th April, 2026 sent to all the four accused persons. 2 In reply, learned Counsel for the petitioners submits that since NIA has decided to withdraw the notices sent under Section 179 of the BNSS, at this stage they also do not want to continue with their prayer for quashing of the impugned proceeding. In such view of the matter, CRR 1666 of 2026 stands dismissed being infructuous in view of the decision taken by the NIA to withdraw the said notices sent to the petitioners under Section 179 of the BNSS.
