HON’BLE SHRI G.S.SINGHVI, THE CHIEF JUSTICE WRIT PETITION No.17540 OF 1998 Between: G.Nageswara Rao . . .Petitioner AND General Insurance Corporation and others . . .Respondents :: ORDER :: Counsel for the petitioner : None Counsel for the respondents : Shri E.V.Suresh Kumar for Shri K.Srinivasa Murthy Dated: 18th April, 2007 In this petition, the petitioner has prayed for issue of a direction to respondent No.3 to promote him as Assistant Administrative Officer by considering his case against the vacancy reserved for Scheduled Tribe in Visakhapatnam region. Shri S.Sridhar Rao appearing on behalf of Shri S.Jagdish, Advocate, who had filed the writ petition says that the petitioner has taken away the brief and Shri S.Jagdish does not have the instructions. In view of the above statement of the learned counsel and the fact that no other Advocate or authorized representative has appeared on behalf of the petitioner, it is reasonable to presume that he is not interested in prosecuting his cause. Consequently, the writ petition is dismissed in default. While dismissing the writ petition in the manner indicated above, I deem it proper to take cognizance of the fact that by an interlocutory order dated 25.06.1998, the learned Single Judge had ordained consideration of the petitioner’s case for promotion against the vacancy of Scheduled Tribe, but the result of his consideration has not been made available to the Court. As a sequel to dismissal of the writ petition, WPMP No.20916 of 1998 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is also dismissed. G.S.SINGHVI, CJ 18th April, 2007. kvni
