This special leave petition, in which leave has already been granted, has been filed against the final judgment and order dated 2nd of March, 2005 in Writ Petition ) No. 683 of 2002 by the High Court of Madhya Pradesh Bench at Indore.

In view of the recent enactment of the Madhya Pradesh Uchcha Nayayalaya (Khand Nyaypeeth Ko Appeal) Adhiniyam, 2005, the learned Counsel for the appellants submitted that permission may be granted to the appellants to withdraw the present petition and to pursue his remedy by way of Letters Patent Appeal (LPA).
