THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE V. RAMASUBRAMANIAN AND THE HON'BLE MS. JUSTICE J. UMA DEVI WRIT PETITION No. 45096 of 2016 ORDER: (Per VRS,J) The petitioner has come up with the present writ petition, virtually complaining of non-compliance with an undertaking given by the official respondents in a previous writ petition, W.P.No.11301 of 2016.

2.

The counsel for the petitioner is not present in Court. 3.

We have perused the copy of the order passed by us on 19.07.2016 in W.P.No.11301 of 2016. Paragraphs-7 and 8 of the said order read as follows:

"7. Even an enemy, could provide the trigger point for an investigation. If a mandamus is sought from a Court, the Court would certainly reject a prayer of this nature made by a person, who camouflages a private cause under the garb of a public cause. But once the official respondents have taken cognizance and initiated some action, the same cannot be prevented even if we condemn the action of the writ petitioners. Therefore, we do not wish to get into the details of the litigation as between the petitioner and the contesting respondents.

8. In view of the statement made on oath by the Principal Director of Income Tax (Investigation), no orders are necessary in these writ petitions. We make it clear that there is no obligation on the part of the official respondents, merely to act on the basis of a person who wants to settle scores with somebody. The writ petitions are accordingly closed. The miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in these writ petitions shall stand closed. No costs."

VRS,J & JUD,,J WP No.45096 of 2016 4.

Therefore, in the light of the nature of the disposal that we have given to the previous writ petition, the question of non-compliance with any undertaking given by the official respondents on the earlier occasion does not arise. Hence, the Writ Petition is dismissed. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions if any pending in the writ petition shall stand dismissed. No order as to costs. __________________________ V.
