3. I have perused the affidavit annexed to the application.
4. Therefore, I do not find any legal impediment to allow the application filed by the petitioner and grant leave to the petitioner to withdraw the election petition, as the application is filed under Section 109 of the Representation of People Act, 1951 and its squarely comes under
Section 109(1) of the Representation of People Act, 1951. Hence, IA.No.1/2025 is allowed.
