These bunch of the petitions have been filed by the petitioners\n      challenging the list issued by Directorate Of Public Instruction\n      Raipur wherein their candidature for various posts of lecturer,\n      assistant teacher and teacher have been rejected on count of\n      that they have dual decrees simultaneously which is not\n      permissible under the rule.2.

The Chhattisgarh\n      Professional Examination Board, Raipur took the exam on\n      07.11.2019. Directorate Of Public Instruction, Raipur issued list\n      of non eligible candidates wherein candidature of the petitioners\n      has been rejected on the count that they have secured dual\n      decree simultaneously.3. The State has filed their return. They have stated that rejection is\n      in conformity with the rule and the petitioners are not entitled to\n      get any relief.4. Learned counsel for the petitioners seek permission of this Court\n      to withdraw the petitions with liberty to make representation in\n      the light of the subsequent notification dated 02.05.2022 issued\n      by the University Grant Commission wherein Dual Degree\n      Programmae has been recognized. Relevant clause is extracted\n      below:-"3.3. Dual Degree Programme\n\n\n             3.3.1.

The\n                   degrees for such programme shall be conferred by the\n                   Indian and Foreign Higher Educational Institutions,\n                   separately and simultaneously, upon completion of degree\n                   requirements of both the institutions. This shall not in any\n                   way be construed as two degree programmes in separate\n                   disciplines/subject areas and/or levels being pursued\n                   simultaneously.3.3.2. Under the Dual degree programme, the degrees to\n                   be offered by an Indian Higher Educational Institution shall\n                   conform to the nomenclature and duration of the degrees\n                   as specified in section 22 (3) of the UGC Act, 1956 and\n                   shall also conform to minimum eligibility and other norms\n                   and standards to offer such degree programme.
