The Central government has withdrawn the 2016 notification allowing jallikattu in view of fresh legislation, the Supreme Court was informed on Tuesday.
The Bench concerned will take a decision on the application on jallikattu, a Supreme Court Bench told Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi.
In January last year, the Centre issued a notification to permit jallikattu ahead of the Pongal festival.
The notification overturns a 2011 notification that prohibited the exhibition or training of bulls, and some other animals, as performing animals. The Supreme Court, in 2014, upheld the 2011 government order.
Jallikattu Act passed unanimously- However a week later, the Supreme Court stayed the Centre's January 2016 notification allowing jallikattu and bullock cart races.
