ORDER
When the matter is taken up for hearing, it has been brought to the knowledge of this Court that the issue has been dealt with by the learned Single Judge of this Court earlier in the case of A.Paneerselvam Vs. The State of Tamil Nadu and Others in W.P.No.5133 of 2014 dated 14.02.2017. The learned Single Judge after adverting to the rival contention and the materials placed on record, dismissed the Writ Petition as devoid of merits.
2. In view of the issue already being considered and discountenanced, this writ petition also ought to have been dismissed in view of the aforementioned decision. Therefore, the Writ Petition stands dismissed. No costs. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petitions are closed.
