COMMON ORDER When the Writ Petitions came up for hearing, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners would fairly submit that the prayer in the Writ Petitions has become infructuous and nothing survives for adjudication in these Writ Petitions. He has also made an endorsement to that effect.

2. In view of the submission and the endorsement so made, the Writ Petitions are dismissed as infructuous. No costs. Consequently, the connected miscellaneous petitions are closed. Sd/- Assistant Registrar (writs) // True Copy // Sub Assistant Registrar(CS ) SML To
