In that case, the Court took cognizance of the order dated 2.4.2004 passed by the Supreme Court in Writ Petition (Civil) No.324 of 2003 (Sri A. Sadguru Prasad v. Government of Andhra Pradesh) and held that in the face of direction given by the Supreme Court to the State Government to enforce the provisions of the new Code, this Court cannot pass an order to stultify the process initiated by the State Government. For the detailed reasons recorded in order dated 27.2.2006 passed in Writ Petition No.25984 of 2005, which shall be treated as part of this order, the writ petition is dismissed. G.S.
