As the period of contract has expired pending the writ petition, the cause in the writ petition does not survive for adjudication. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of as infructuous. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.24471 of 2008 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. ________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 12th July, 2011 GHN
