Undisputedly, the balance amount has already been deposited in accordance with the order dated 12th August, 2004. Consequently, the 16 petitioners would be entitled to withdraw the said amount on pro rata basis as was directed earlier in relation to the first instalment of Rs.20 lakhs by an order dated 31st March, 2004.

The same is placed on record and marked "X" for identification. 3. The 16 petitioners are, therefore, allowed to withdraw the balance amount deposited by the respondents on pro-rata basis as stated above, and in view of the payment of money in accordance with the order passed by this Court, nothing survives in this matter. The proceedings are accordingly dropped and disposed of. The notice stands discharged. -----
