Petitioner has sought for a review of Exhibit P2 order by means of Exhibit P5 review petition. Subsequently, petitioner has produced Exhibit P8 communication along with I.A. No.10103 of 2008 by which he has been informed by the Geologist that considering the contentions raised in the review petition all further proceedings are kept in abeyance until further orders. In circumstances where the authority itself has kept in abeyance the recovery proceedings, no further consideration of the writ petition is required. Government W.P ( C) No.23140 of 2008 2 Pleader, on instructions, further submits that review petition has been rejected on 18.2.2008. That is not a matter which has been traversed by the petitioner in this writ petition. For all these reasons, the writ petition is closed.
