Case :- WRIT - A No. - 22376 of 2002 Petitioner :- Dhruv Chaturvedi Respondent :- Secy. Education Deptt. & Others Counsel for Petitioner :-
Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C.
Hon'ble Sudhir Agarwal,J.
1. Pursuant to this Court's order dated 01.11.2018, notice was issued to petitioner to engage another counsel on 19.11.2018. Perused Office Report dated 20.12.2018. Service is deemed sufficient.
2. Called in revise. None appeared to press this writ petition. Learned Standing Counsel is present for respondents. In the circumstances, I myself have perused the record.
3. By means of present writ petition, petitioner has sought following reliefs:
“i) issue a writ, order or direction including in the nature of mandamus commanding the respondents to make payment of the salary to the petitioner month by month as and when it falls due as admissible in the law to class-IV employee of an Intermediate institution.
ii) issue a writ, order or direction including writ in the nature of mandamus commanding the respondents to make arrears of salary to the petitioner since Feb. 2000 till date with 18% interest thereon.”
4. I myself have gone through the pleadings, grounds as also reliefs sought and find that petitioner is not able to make out a case so as to justify interference of this Court by granting reliefs, as prayed for.
5. Moreover, it appears that either the cause of action no more survives or the petitioner has lost interest in this matter or it has otherwise become infructuous and, probably for this reason, none is interested to have decided this matter on merits.
6. Dismissed. Interim order, if any, stands vacated.
