After arguing for some time, the learned counsel for the

petitioner states that he may be permitted to withdraw the present petition

and the personal appearance of the petitioner before the learned trial Court

may be exempted.

In view of the statement made above, the instant petition is

dismissed as withdrawn.

However, the petitioner will be at liberty to move an

application seeking exemption of his personal appearance before the learned

trial Court. The learned trial Court will consider all the grounds mentioned

in such application before passing any orders on such application. If the

learned trial court happens to dismiss such application, the petitioner will be

at liberty to approach this Court.
