In view of the above submission as to the changed circumstances, which led to file another O.A.5156 of 2010, which is pending before the Tribunal, we feel that no further orders are necessary in this writ petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. But, however, it is needless to observe that the petitioners-authorities are at liberty to agitate their rights before the Tribunal in O.A.No.5156 of 2010. ________________________ Justice T.
