JUDGMENT The petitioner has filed this writ petition challenging his non inclusion in the rank list prepared by the Kerala Public Service Commission for selection to the post of Attendant (Sidha). The counsel for the petitioner is absent. The counsel for the Kerala Public Service Commission submits that the list came into force with effect from 16/9/2006 and the validity of the same has already expired. In the above circumstances, there is no point in considering the writ petition on merits. I accordingly dismiss the writ petition. S.SIRI JAGAN JUDGE su
