CORAM : MADHAV J. JAMDAR, J.

DATED : 7th SEPTEMBER 2023 P.C. :

1.

The Petitioner-Khadya Peya Vikretha Malak Sangh is registered as Trade Union. The Petitioner claims to be established for rendering professional help to its member for carrying out hotel business in Sangli city.

2.

The Petitioner has sought following substantive prayer in the Writ Petition:

"(b) The impugned letter issued by the Respondent No.1 in the month of January to the Petitioner members asking from them a copy of permission for non agricultural commercial use for the purpose of renewal of eating house licence be quashed and set aside."

3.

A learned Single Judge by order dated 7th July 1999, 1/2

909-wp-2266-1999.doc Sonali admitted the Writ Petition and granted interim relief. The said order dated 7th July 1999 reads as under:- "Rule. Heard learned counsel for both the sides. By way of interim relief, it is directed that the applications submitted by the members of the petitioner for renewal of the eating house licence be considered without insisting upon clearing of the non-agricultural assessment dues."

4.

It appears that in the meanwhile, the learned Advocate representing the Petitioner has been elevated as Judge of this Court and therefore, notice was issued to the Petitioner. As per office noting, the said notice has been served on the Petitioner. However, none appears for the Petitioner.

5.

Perusal of the prayer in the petition and the interim relief which has been granted by this Court clearly show that in view of order dated 7th July 1999 passed by learned Single Judge, the purpose of the Writ Petition has been worked out and it has become infructuous.

6.

Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of with no order as to costs.
