It has further prayed for quashing G.O.Ms.No. 117, Energy (RES) dated 13.10.2003. We have heard Dr. P.B. Vijaya Kumar and perused the record. At the commencement of hearing, we enquired from Dr. P.B. Vijaya Kumar whether any action has been taken by the respondents prejudicially affecting the petitioner. To this, learned counsel replied in negative. In view of the above, we are convinced that no tangible cause has accrued to the petitioner for challenging the vires of the impugned legislation and G.O.Ms.No. 117, dated 13.10.2003 and the writ petition is liable to be dismissed as premature. Ordered accordingly. It is, however, made clear that as and when any action is initiated by the respondents against the petitioner, then the latter shall be free to file fresh petition. As a sequel to dismissal of the writ petition, WPMP No. 10641 of 2007 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. G.S. SINGHVI, C.J. C.V.
