JUSTICE T. MEENA KUMARI AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR W.A.NO. 406 OF 2009 JUDGMENT: (Per Hon’ble Smt. Justice T. Meena Kumari) Heard learned counsel for the parties. This writ appeal is filed against the order dated 4.3.2009 passed by a learned single Judge of this Court in W.P.M.P.No. 5513 of 2009 in W.P.No. 4208 of 2009. Along with the writ petition, the writ petitioner has filed an application being WPMP No. 5513 of 2009 by which he sought a direction from the court to the 1st respondent not to execute the lease agreement in favour of 2nd respondent and also prevent it from carrying on any mining operations in pursuance to the tender notification. The learned single Judge passed an interim order directing the second respondent not to carry on mining operations. This is challenged by the 2nd respondent in this writ appeal. A perusal of the impugned order shows that the lease was already executed in favour of the 2nd respondent. In this view of the matter, we are of the opinion that the WPMP itself has become infructuous. Therefore, we vacate the interim direction granted by the learned single Judge and direct the Registry to list the main writ petition on 21st April, 2009 before appropriate court for final hearing on top of the list. The writ appeal is accordingly disposed of. However, no order as to costs. __________________________ JUSTICE T. MEENA KUMARI ________________________________ JUSTICE VILAS V.
