SURYA KANT, J.

This writ petition assails the order dated 19.07.2012 passed by Central Administrative Tribunal, Chandigarh Bench, Chandigarh (for brevity, `the Tribunal'), whereby the petitioner-authorities were directed to reconsider the matter of upgradation of `Annual Confidential Reports' (ACRs) of respondent No.1. The Tribunal observed that the Reviewing Authority diluted the ACRs for the years 2005-06 and 2006-08 from `very good' to `good', as a result of which first respondent was unable to achieve Meenu 2017.04.06 14:16 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document chandigarh the benchmark for promotion. The Tribunal further found that respondent

CWP-14795-2013 (O&M) -2No.1 was consistently graded as `very good' or `outstanding' hence there were circumstances warranting reconsideration for the upgradation of his two reports, referred above.

Learned counsel for the petitioners fairly state that during pendency of this writ petition, the Tribunal's order has been complied with and the matter re: upgradation of ACRs of respondent No.1 has been reconsidered.

Since the view taken by the Tribunal is one of the plausible views and the directions issued by it have since been complied with, we are satisfied that no interference with the order under challenge is called for. The writ petition is, accordingly dismissed on merits as well as being infructuous.
