Challenges to notifications or circulars can proceed after the Constitution Bench's outcome.6. All legal contentions remain open for petitioners post-decision.Based on these directions, the current writ petition (W.P.No.627 of 2024) was disposed of in alignment with the aforementioned judgment, with no costs awarded, and related miscellaneous petitions were closed.
