@#@#@#@#@#@#@ HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE B.PRAKASH RAO AND HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO:22331 of 2006 DATED: 20-11-2006 Between: H.Shivaram ..... PETITIONER AND 1. State of A.P. rep.by its Principal Secretary to Government, Industries and Commerce Department, Secretariat, Hyderabad and another. .....RESPONDENTS @#@#@#@#@#@#@ ORDER: (per The Hon’ble Sri Justice Ramesh Ranganathan) Heard both sides, and at their request, the main writ petition itself is taken up for disposal. Aggrieved by the action of the Tribunal in not granting him an interim order, the applicant in O.A. has filed the present writ petition. The interim relief sought by the petitioner-applicant, before the Tribunal, was that promotions to the post of Additional Director not be effected on the basis of the provisional seniority list of Joint Directors. A counter-affidavit is filed before us, on behalf of the respondents, wherein it is specifically stated that the first respondent is in the process of finalizing the seniority list of Joint Directors, that after taking precautions, in accordance with rules, the final seniority list in the cadre of Joint Directors will be communicated, and only thereafter would the exercise of effecting promotions to the post of Additional Director be taken up. In view of this specific submission made by the respondents, in their counter-affidavit, the cause in the writ petition does not survive adjudication. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. However, in the circumstances, without costs. ________________ B.PRAKASH RAO, J _______________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J 20th November, 2006 SKM
