However, the petitioner submits that, to enable the petitioner to do so, status quo as on today may be directed to be maintained for a week. Learned Standing Counsel for the Municipality seeks time. However, in the nature of the order I propose to pass, I do not think that disposal of this writ petition has to be postponed for that purpose. Accordingly, the petitioner is permitted to withdraw this writ petition without prejudice to her right to file a suit on the same cause of action. To enable the petitioner to do so, status quo as on today shall be maintained for a period of one week. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge w.p.c.30335/ 2
