J U D G M E N T

The petitioner has challenged the appointment of the 2nd respondent as Director. The impugned order is at Ext.P4 which appointment was only for a period of three years. It is also submitted by the learned counsel for the 1st respondent that the petitioner is now the Director of the 1st respondent. In such circumstance, nothing survives in the writ petition and the same is dismissed as infructuous.
