This appeal is directed against the order dated 5.6.2009 passed by the learned Single Judge of this Court in writ petition no. 488 (S/S) of 2009. 3. By this impugned order, learned Single Judge has dismissed the writ petition on the grounds mentioned in his order dated 3.6.2009 passed in writ petition no. 522 (S/S) of 2009, Fireman Kanhi Singh and others Vs. Union of India and others. 4. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and after going through the impugned order dated 5.6.2009 and 2 the order dated 3.6.2009 mentioned above, since the petitioners have been finally allocated State of Uttar Pradesh by the Government of India under Section 73 of U.P. Re-organization Act, 2000 (Central Act No. 29 of 2000), the respondent nos. 2 to 5 have simply relieved the petitioners for the State of U.P. The Central Government is empowered under the aforesaid Act to allocate the employees working on 9.11.2000, either of the successor States. In the circumstances, the respondent nos. 2 to 5 have committed no error of law in relieving the petitioners from the State of U.P. That being so, we do not find any illegality in the impugned order dated 5.6.2009 passed by the learned Single Judge in writ petition no. 488 of 2009 (S/S). 5. Accordingly, the special appeal is dismissed summarily. (Interim relief application no. 4910 of 2009 stands disposed of.) (B.S.Verma, J.) (Prafulla C.Pant, J.) 29.6.2009 RMY 3
