Cryptic writ dismissal set aside; petition restored for fresh High Court consideration with interim protection continued.

A cryptic dismissal of a writ petition was found unsustainable, and the matter was restored to the High Court for fresh consideration. The Supreme Court directed issuance of notice to the respondents, kept all contentions open for the High Court to decide, and required independent consideration of interim and final relief. The interim protection granted earlier was ordered to continue for three months, preserving limited relief pending reconsideration.
