ORDER
The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the information sought for by the petitioner on 20.09.2013 may not be required now, owing to passage of time and therefore, the https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
prayer sought for has become infructuous.
2. This Court places its appreciation to the fair submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioner.
3. Apparently, no effective orders can be passed in the present writ petition, since the information sought for by the petitioner was more than 10 years back and therefore, no useful purpose would be served by adjudicating this petition.
4. Accordingly, the Writ Petition stands closed. No costs. Sd/- Assistant Registrar(CS VII) //True Copy// Sub Assistant Registrar jeni/hvk To
