J. NISHA BANU,J.

S.SRIMATHY,J.

In the case on hand, the promotion to the post of Noon Meal Organizer to the writ petitioner was rejected on the ground that the certificate issued by the second respondent for having completed SSLC by the petitioner in distance education, is not equivalent to the State Board syllabus. The writ petition was allowed with a direction to the second respondent to take necessary steps to consider the 10th and 12th courses offered by the second respondent as equivalent to the State Board syllabus. Challenging the same, this writ appeal is filed. 2.Today, when the matter is taken up for hearing, the learned Special Government Pleader appearing for the appellants fairly submits that the second respondent had obtained an order for treating the courses offered by the second 2/4

respondent as equivalent to State Board syllabus vide G.O.Ms.No.201, School Education (ERT) Department, dated 11.09.2024. 3.In view of the above submission, this Writ Appeal is dismissed as not pressed. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. (J.N.B.,J.) (S.S.Y.,J.) 14.02.2025 Index : Yes/No Internet : Yes/No ta 3/4
