IN THE HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA CWP No. 1397 of 2011 Date of Decision : 21.3.2011 Vikrant Sharma …….Petitioner Versus State of H.P. and anr. ……….Respondents Coram: The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kurian Joseph, Chief Justice. The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Sanjay Karol, Judge. For the petitioner: Mr. Javed Khan, Advocate. For the respondents: Mr. Mr. R.K. Bawa, A.G. with Mr. Ankush Dass Sood, Addl. A.G. and Mr. J.K. Verma, Dy.A.G. Justice Kurian Joseph, C.J. (Oral) The writ petition is filed with following prayers:- “a) That the respondent-Board may kindly be directed to declare the result of the tests conducted in terms of Annexure P-6 and the restraint order passed in CWP No. 6558 of 2010 be vacated forthwith and respondent Board be further directed to go on the process of selection. b) Alternatively, the petition filed by the petitioner in CWP No. 6558 of 2010 may kindly be ordered to be fixed for final hearing on merits forthwith to avoid further delay in the process of law and this petition also may kindly be ordered to be tagged with that petition so that the petitioner also may be provided opportunity of being heard in the matter.” 2. Both the prayers are wholly misconceived. By way of a separate writ petition, modification of the interim order is not maintainable. Equally, a writ petition is not a proper course to be adopted 2 for fixing the pending writ petition for early hearing. There are established procedures and practices for providing such relief(s). Therefore, this writ petition is dismissed. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice. (Justice Sanjay Karol), March 21, 2011 Judge. (rana/pankaj)
