None appears for the petitioners to appraise whether the tenders were finalized and the work was allotted to the petitioners’ societies. However, in view of the interim orders dated 15.9.2000, no further orders are necessary in the writ petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is closed. No costs. ________________ A.
