UPON hearing the counsel the Court made the following O R D E R

I.A. No. 143440 of 2021 in W.P.(Crl.) No. 21/2021

After the aforesaid order is dictated, learned counsel for the applicant prays that he may be permitted to withdraw this application.

Accordingly, this application is dismissed as withdrawn.

The main matter to proceed alongwith SLP(Crl.) No. 4634 of 2014.
