Raval for MR MR ANAND for Petitioner. Mr. L.R. Pujari, AGP for Respondent No. 1 Mr. Devang Vyas for MR KG VAKHARIA for Respondent No. 2. --------------------------------------------------------- CORAM : MR.JUSTICE N.G.NANDI Date of decision: 28/06/2001 ORAL JUDGEMENT It is stated by Mr. Devang Vyas for Mr. K.G. Vakharia, learned advocate for respondent No.2 that the order reverting this petitioner from the post of Gujarati Typist to Peon was passed on 25.5.1989 but this order of reversion could not be served on the petitioner as the petitioner evaded service of the same, with the result the order of reversion could not be implemented and the petitioner continued to work as Gujarati Typist as in the meanwhile the interim relief came to be granted by this Court. It is further stated that the petitioner during the pendency of this petition has retired on attaining the age of superannuation in the year 1992 from the post of Gujarati Typist and now there is no question of any relief surviving in this writ petition. Since the order of reversion could not be served on the petitioner and the petitioner having been protected by the interim relief granted by this Court resulting into the petitioner continuing to serve on the post of Gujarati Typist and the petitioner having retired from the post of Gujarati Typist on attaining the age of superannuation pending this petition, no relief claimed in this petition is surviving and the petition therefore is liable to be dismissed as not surviving. 2. The petition is dismissed as not surviving. Rule discharged. rmr. [N.G. Nandi, J.] ======
