Sah and Mr. Anil Bisht, Advocates present for the respondents. The petitioners who were candidates for an examination known as Teachers Eligibility Test (from hereinafter referred to as TET). Since their application forms could not be submitted within time, they have filed 2 these writ petitions praying that the respondents be directed to accept their application forms. The reason assigned by the petitioners was that it was not due to their fault but the fault was on the part of the Indian Postal Department. Meanwhile, the State Authorities and Nodal Agency which was conducting the TET examination, have on its own extended the date of accepting the application forms. This Court has been informed at the bar that the grievance of the petitioners thus stands redressed now. The writ petitions therefore have become infructuous and are dismissed as such. No order as to costs. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) 20.08.2011 Kuldeep
