In the aforesaid writ petition, they challenged the order dated 15.4.2009, whereby the result of a typewriting test held by the respondents, was sought to be cancelled. The contention of the petitioners, during the course of hearing of Civil Writ Petition No.7665 of 2009, as also, that of the appellants during the course of hearing of the instant appeal, is that the cancellation of the result of typewriting test visits the petitioners/appellants with adverse civil consequences, and as such, could not have been passed without affording the petitioners/appellants an opportunity of hearing consequent upon the issuance of a show cause notice LPA No.514 of 2009 2 in consonance with the rules of natural justice. Learned counsel for the respondents on the last date of hearing i.e. 22.10.2009, had sought an adjournment so as to enable her to obtain instructions. Having obtained instructions, learned counsel for the respondents states, that the impugned order dated 15.4.2009 may be treated as having been withdrawn, and that, before passing any such fresh order, the respondents, if they are so advised, shall follow the rules of natural justice. In view of the statement made by the learned counsel for the respondents, the impugned order dated 15.4.2009 shall be treated as withdrawn. As a natural consequence thereof, the decision rendered by this Court on 28.5.2009, while disposing of Civil Writ Petition No.7665 of 2009, becomes inoperational. No observations recorded in the aforesaid order shall be taken into consideration while adjudicating the claim raised on behalf of the petitioners/appellants. A copy of this order be furnished to the learned counsel for the respondents dasti on payment of usual charges. The instant appeal stands disposed of in the aforesaid terms. ( J.S.
