Be that as it may, by lapse of time, the cause in this writ petition has become infructuous, for the petitioner was seeking admission for his son into the Pre-Primary I Class during the academic year 1998-99. Therefore, the writ petition is dismissed as having become infructuous. No costs. ______________ N.V. RAMANA, J Date: 04-03-2005 Svv .....
