Court No. - 34
Case :- WRIT - A No. - 32304 of 2001 Petitioner :- Ram Chandra Shukla Respondent :- District Magistrate, Jhansi Counsel for Petitioner :- Rajendra Kumar Misra,Dr.Daya Shanker Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C.
Hon'ble Sudhir Agarwal,J.
1. Called in revise. None appeared on behalf of petitioner.
2. By means of the present writ petition, petitioner has sought the following reliefs:
“(a) A writ order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the respondent District Magistrate Jhansi to promote the petitioner at the post of Head Clerk w.e.f. 1.7.2001 in the existing vacancy with all consequential benefits of pay and allowances and arrears of pay etc.
(b) A writ order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the respondent D.M. Jhansi to decide the petitioner's representation dated 20.6.2001 by a speaking order so as to promote him w.e.f 1.7.2001 at the post of Head Clerk with all consequential benefits.”
3. However, I 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 that 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.
