Consider the given linked list: 1->1->1->2->2->3, the function is expected to convert the linked list into 1->2->3. In this article, we will extensively discuss the Label Control in C# & how to  remove duplicates from sorted doubly linked list .  Important:  We are supposed to delete only the duplicates i.e. only one copy of nodes should be there. Intuition:  The biggest hint given is that the list is sorted or non-decreasing in nature. From this, we can deduce that if duplicates are present, then it has to be the next one in the chain.
