All these Writ Appeals are filed challenging the interim orders of the learned single Judge directing the Government to consider respondents for allotment of Haj quota under the Private Tour Operators Scheme this year itself. When these Writ Appeals came up for hearing, parties agreed to have the Writ Petitions heard and we have taken up Writ Petitions for hearing. Since entitlement of the respondents for consideration itself is considered in the Writ Petitions and the same will be decided immediately there is no need for us to consider the Writ Appeals. Therefore all the Writ appeals are dismissed, leaving freedom to the parties to raise all their contentions in the Writ Petitions which are taken up today itself for hearing.
