Mrs. M.M.Deshmukh. APP for State. CORAM: A.M.KHANWILKAR & R.G.KETKAR, JJ. DATE : 22.11.2011. P.C.: Counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been ill-advised to file this petition. Instead, the petitioner ought to have pursued the matter before the Passport Authority by way of an application in the pending appeal. She submits that the petitioner may be permitted to withdraw this petition with liberty to move an application before the Passport Authority. Accordingly, petition is allowed to be withdrawn with the liberty as prayed for. We make it clear that this order is not an expression of any opinion either way as to whether such application is maintainable or otherwise. (R.G.KETKAR, J.) (A.M.KHANWILKAR,J.)
