IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition No. 266 of 2011 (S/B) Dr. Jagdish Prasad Bhatt ...…………. Petitioner Versus State of Uttarakhand & others...…………. Respondents Mr. Manoj Tiwari, Sr. Advocate assisted by Mr. Alok Mahra, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Vinay Kumar, Standing Counsel for the State / respondent Nos. 1 & 2. Mr. Sandeep Kothari, Advocate for respondent No. 3. Mr. K.P. Upadhyaya, Advocate for respondent No. 4. Hon’ble Barin Ghosh, C. J. Hon’ble U.C. Dhyani, J. Stay Vacation Appn. No. 12096 of 2011 Withdrawal Appln. No. 12145 of 2011 By the order impugned in the writ petition age of superannuation of Allopathic doctors was enhanced. By an interim order passed on the writ petition the said order was stayed, in asmuchas, the field is statutorily covered. Subsequent thereto, an order has been passed by the Government, withdrawing the decision to enhance the age of superannuation of doctors. Accordingly, an application has been filed for withdrawal of the writ petition. Prior thereto another application was filed for vacating the interim order as was granted by the court. The withdrawal application has been contested by respondent No. 3, who was benefited by the order impugned in the writ petition. It is he, who had also filed the application for vacating the interim order. We think that in the facts and circumstances of the case, since by an action of the State, the grievances of the petitioner have been redressed there is nothing 2 further to be done in the writ petition. We, accordingly, permit the writ petitioner to withdraw the writ petition. In asmuchas the writ petition stands withdrawn, the interim order passed on the writ petition also stands extinguished, and accordingly, the stay vacation application has since become meaningless. At the same time, we make it clear that filing of the writ petition, interim stay granted thereon and the present order will not prevent the respondent No. 3 to question the order of the State passed subsequent to filing of the writ petition whereby the previous order of the State was withdrawn.
