Court No. - 34
Case :- WRIT - A No. - 10325 of 2002 Petitioner :- Gauri Shanker Shukla Respondent :- District Judge (Judgeship) & Others Counsel for Petitioner :- P.N. Ojha Counsel for Respondent :- Yashwant Verma,K.R. Sirohi,S.C.
Hon'ble Sudhir Agarwal,J.
1. 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.
2. By means of present writ petition, petitioner has sought following reliefs:
"i) issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of certiorari quash the order dated 21.2.2002 passed by respondent no. 1 (Annexure-5 to the writ petition);
ii) issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the respondent no. 1 to issue appointment letter to the petitioner in accordance with selection list dated 19.9.2003.
iii) issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus commanding the respondent no. 1 to consider the seniority of the petitioner, over the seniority of respondent nos. 2 and 3."
3. 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.
4. 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 and that is why, counsel for petitioner is absent.
5. Dismissed. Interim order, if any, stands vacated.
