The present petitioners as also various other petitioners have filed petitions before this Court for various reliefs including for directions to respondents to issue Continuous Discharge Certificate (CDC). At the admission stage, various Benches of this Court passed interim orders from time to time directing the respondents during the pendency of the petitions, to consider the petitioners’ application for the issue of Continuous Discharge Certificate. On such order [-2-] came to be passed in Writ Petition No.2381 of 1993 by order dated 24.1.1994. A Division Bench of this Court directed the respondents to consider the application made by the petitioners for CDC and decide the same. A time limit was fixed for disposal of the applications. Against that order, the respondents Union of India filed a Special Leave Petition before the Apex Court. One such Appeal was numbered as Civil Appeal No. 674 of 1994. This Appeal came to be withdrawn on March 20, 2001. The order of this Court, therefore, was not interfered with. In the meantime, pursuant to the directions of this Court, the petitioners in all the pending petitions before the Court applied for C.D.C., which applications were considered and the petitioners herein and other petitioners were granted C.D.C. 2. After hearing the matter and considering the issues involved, we find no reason to differ from the view taken by this Court, while passing the interim order dated 24.1.1994 in Writ Petition No.2381 of 1993 and other petitions. The petition can be disposed off in terms of the order of the Court dated 24.1.1994. [-3-] 3. However, considering that the petitioners have already received Continuous Discharge Certificate (CDC), nothing further survives in this petition, hence, the petition stands disposed of in terms of the C.D.C. already granted. There shall be no order as to costs. . Office to issue authenticated copy of this order to the parties. [ F.I.REBELLO, J.] [ SMT.V.K.TAHILRAMANI,J.]
