HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SHRI G.S. SINGHVI Writ Petition No. 13651 of 2001 Between: M. Madhava Reddy … Petitioner And The Commissioner, Irrigation and Command Area Development Department, Errum Manzil, Hyderabad & others. … Respondents :: O R D E R :: Counsel for the petitioner : None Counsel for the respondents : Assistant Government Pleader for Irrigation and Command Area Development September 19, 2007 In this petition, the petitioner has prayed for quashing order dated 09.04.2001 passed by Commissioner, Command Area Development removing him from the post of President of Seethampet Cheruvu Water Users’ Association under Section 41-A (2) of the Andhra Pradesh Farmers-Managed Irrigation Systems Act, 1997. Although the learned counsel for the petitioner has not appeared, I do not consider it necessary to defer the disposal of the writ petition because the learned Assistant Government Pleader pointed out that the tenure of the petitioner as President of the Water Users’ Association had come to an end in the year 2001 itself and no useful purpose would be served by deciding the legality of order dated 09.04.2001. In view of the statement made by the learned Assistant Government Pleader, the writ petition is disposed of as infructuous. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition as infructuous, order dated 15.04.2002 is vacated and W.V.M.P.No.2116 of 2001 is disposed of as infructuous. G.S. SINGHVI, CJ September 19, 2007 ksld
