W.A. No.623 of 2011 .................................................................... Dated this the 2nd day of September, 2011. J U D G M E N T Ramachandran Nair, J. This Writ Appeal is filed against certain observations and findings of the learned Single Judge with reference to the eligibility of the 1st respondent for approval to start Engineering College under the old Regulations. However, it is conceded by both sides that on fresh application filed under the new Regulations, the 1st respondent's College was found to be eligible for approval by the appellant and the appellant infact granted approval. In view of this development, the findings and observations of the learned Single Judge has become purely academic as the old Regulations to which the judgment relates do not survive. We, make this position clear and dispose of the Writ Appeal without any direction whatsoever as already the 1st respondent has approval for their College.
