J U D G M E N T The petitioners are primary societies in the Handloom sector. The petitioners approached this Court complaining about the non granting of financial assistance, while similar other societies were being granted such assistance by the Government. Therefore, the writ petition was filed with the main prayer to direct the 3rd respondent to grant approval to the looms included in Exts.P3 and P4 lists and grant permission for procurement of cloths from those members. In CMP.No.52490/2000 there was an interim direction to the 3rd respondent General Manager to take a decision on Ext.P3 within ten days from the date of the order. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioners that the looms have been approved pursuant to said interim order. Later by an order dated 18.6.2002 in CMP.No.14424/2002 an interim direction was granted as prayed for. The prayer therein was to direct the respondents to grant all financial assistance to the petitioners which are usually granted by the Government to Handloom Societies. This was made subject to the result of the Original Petition. 2. In the light of the fact that the looms have been approved pursuant to the order in CMP.No.52490/2000 and in view of the interim order O.P.No. 30890 of 2000-B. 2 dated 18.6.2002, no further orders are called for in this writ petition. Therefore, the writ petition is closed recording the same. No costs. T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, JUDGE. Kvs/-
