2. The learned Additional Solicitor General for the Respondent Institution has brought to the notice of this court that there is only one seat vacant, which has to be allotted to the 3rd Respondent in WP.No.24225 of 2016, who has been impleaded by the order dated 29.09.2016 made in WMP.No.29293 of 2016 in WP.No.25225 of 2016 and that since the said 3rd Respondent is the eligible candidate as on date to get the admission, they are ready to give the admission to him.
3. In so far as the Petitioner is concerned, now the Petitioner safely states that in future if there is any vacancy arises and if he is eligible for transfer, his name may be considered. According to the learned Additional Solicitor General, as a policy decision, they do not allow any transfer. Therefore, at this stage, this Writ Petition cannot be entertained and accordingly, it is dismissed. However, it is always open to the Petitioner to approach the authority if any vacancy arises in future.
4. With the above directions, this Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs. Consequently, the connected MP is closed.
