Judgment text as reported

SHEHROZE RAHEEM MUGHAL VS PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION Conduct of the party invoking writ jurisdiction of High Court---Scope and effect ---Petitioner filed the writ petition challenging the handout, however during pendency, the appointment notification of respondent was issued---Petitioner did not assail the said notification separately, instead, did it by filing his first amendment application; said application was later withdrawn by him; later after period of over one and a half years, submitted second amendment; finally, writ was dismissed declining reliefs sought Held: Petitioner himself abandoned his claim by withdrawing the application---Furthermore, the claim that the handout impugned by the petitioner is the basic transaction and if declared illegal, would nullify subsequent actions, is flawed---After issuance of appointment notification, the recommendations of PSC merged into final notification and had no existence, hence, it was mandatory for the petitioner to challenge the appointment notification---Furthermore, the petitioner has taken contradictory stands; on one hand he claims that there was no requirement of challenging the appointment notification and on the other hand he is strongly pressing the application for amendment---Nobody can be allowed to blow hot and cold in one breath---Petitioner's conduct demonstrated acquiescence, waiver, and estoppel---No illegality or infirmity in the High Court's impugned judgment had been noticed---Petitioner failed to point out any substantial question of law warranting the grant of leave to appeal---Petition was dismissed.
