(Judgment of the Court was delivered by R.SURESH KUMAR, J.) This intra-Court appeal has been directed against the order dated 19.11.2025 made in W.P.No.28915 of 2024.

2. In fact the said writ petition was filed by the two writ petitioners, namely, M.Dineshkumar and T.Sathish Kumar. Aggrieved over the order dated 19.11.2025, one of the writ petitioners, namely, T.Sathish Kumar filed intra-Court appeal in W.A.No.3865 of 2025 which came to be dismissed, by our order dated 05.01.2026, where we have given our reasons for such dismissal. The other writ petitioner, namely, M.Dineshkumar is the present appellant who has filed the instant appeal. Naturally, this appeal has to face the same fate as that of W.A.No.3865 of 2025. Therefore, we, by following the judgment passed in W.A.No.3865 of 2025 dated 05.01.2026, are inclined to dismiss this writ appeal, accordingly, this Writ Appeal is dismissed. However, there shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. (R.S.K., J.)
