In the circumstance, we dispose of the present Letters Patent Appeal as withdrawn and direct the respondent No.1/Commissioner of Sugar to decide the arbitration proceedings on its own merit according to law and procedure applicable in this regard by following principles of natural justice as early as possible and in any case not beyond the period of six weeks from the communication of this order. It is agreed by the parties to the LPA that in the meantime they shall maintain status quo in all respects including criminal proceedings, if any, initiated against the appellant.
