[Ms. Syeda Abida Bukhari, advocate for petitioner No.1 Mr. Muhammad Vawda, advocate for petitioner No.2 Mr. Shariq A. Razzaq, advocate for respondents No.10-12 M/s Rafiq Ahmed Bhambro, advocate for respondent No.1(SBCA) a/w Mr. Aakash Mustafa Mr. Ali Zaidi, Addl. A.G. P.I. Zahid Hussain Qadri PS Bahadurabad is present ------------------------------------------ O R D E R Adnan-ul-Kari Memon, J At the very outset, learned counsel for the Petitioners, on instructions, seeks leave to withdraw the instant petition to the extent of Pe titioner No.2. Since no objection has been raised by the learned counsel for the Respondents, the petition is dismissed as withdrawn to the extent of Petitioner No.2. So far as Petitioner No.1 is concerned, learned counsel submits that the grievance of the Petitioner would stand adequately redressed if the Respondents are directed to satisfy and clear any lawful outstanding dues, liabilities, or obligations, of whatsoever nature, about Karachi Cooperative Housing Societies Union Ltd., strictly in accordance with law. Learned counsel for the private Respondents, while not disputing the proposition, has fairly agreed to the same, subject to all just exceptions and verification under the relevant legal framework. In view of the consensual stance adopted by the parties, and since the controversy does not survive for adjudication on merits at this stage, no useful purpose would be served by keeping the present proceedings pending. It is a settled principle that where parties arrive at an agreed arrangement capabl e of resolving the lis, the Court, while avoiding unnecessary adjudication, may dispose of the matter in terms of such consensus, provided the same is not contrary to law or public policy. Accordingly, without touching upon the merits of the case, and with the consent of learned counsel for the parties, the instant petition, along with all pending application(s), is disposed of with the observation that the Respondents shall pay lawful dues and liabilities, if payable, relating to Karachi Cooperative Housin g Societies Union Ltd.
