Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that once a petitioner requests to withdraw a writ petition, the High Court should not delve into the merits of the case. The Court emphasized that the High Court's refusal to allow withdrawal was inappropriate, leading to the setting aside of the High Court's order and any consequential orders made thereafter. The appeals were disposed of in favor of permitting the withdrawal of the writ petition.
