Reply filed on behalf of the respondent No.4 is taken on record. CM application is disposed of. CWP No.4209 of 2011 The prayer in the writ petition is for a direction to the CWP No. 4209 of 2011 -: 2 :- respondents to issue tender forms to the petitioners and thereafter to consider the same. By interim order dated 9.3.2011, the first prayer of the petitioners was granted and the respondents were directed to place the outcome of the tender process before the Court. The respondent No.4 has filed a reply stating that pursuant to the interim order of this Court, dated 9.3.2011, tender forms had been issued to the petitioners who, however, had filed the same with insufficient earnest money. In the said reply, it is further stated that a large majority of the tenderers had also submitted defective tenders and therefore, a decision has been taken to cancel the tender process and issue fresh notice. In view of the decision taken by the respondents to cancel the tender process in question and to issue fresh notice, we do not see how there can be any surviving cause of action in this writ petition. In view of the above, the writ petition is disposed of as having become infructuous. [Ranjan Gogoi] Chief Justice [Kanwaljit Singh Ahluwalia] April 04, 2011. Judge kadyan
