1.

The prayer in the writ petition is to grant an order of appointment on the footing that the petitioner is duly selected after conclusion of a valid selection process. 2.

We do not think that entry of the name in the select list or empanelment gives right to claim a mandamus or a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the

suresh 919-WP-646.2015.doc respondents to appoint the petitioner as Professor in Botany with effect from 10-4-2012. We are in the year 2019. No useful purpose will be served by going further into the allegations in the writ petition. The writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. (M.S. KARNIK, J.) (S.C. DHARMADHIKARI, J.)
