Mr. Anil Kumar Sharma, Addl. A.G., Punjab for the respondents. CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K. KANNAN 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment ? No 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not ? No 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? No -.- K. KANNAN J.(ORAL) 1. The petitioner's grievance against the imposition of penalty does not any longer survive for consideration in view of the withdrawal of the penalty imposed by the Ombudasman under the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, 2005. There is also a prayer for direction for formulation of Rules. It appears that the Rules have already been framed but still the petitioner would seek for a direction that the Ombudasman must act under the Rules and shall not act arbitrarily. It is a wide off-the-cuff that requires no serious consideration. 2. The writ petition is disposed of. (K. KANNAN) JUDGE November 01, 2011 Pankaj*
