Counsel for the State and the private respondent no.6 are present. From the order of this Court dated 22.5.1998 it would be clear that the petitioner was aggrieved by an order of his transfer which was also stayed by this Court. The petitioner by the order of transfer was sought to be posted at Ranchi at a point of time it was part of old State of Bihar. Such transfer order having been stayed by this Court today when this case has been taken up for final hearing, the same has definitely become infructuous both 2 on account of challenge to the order of transfer dated 4th May, 1998 which also could not come into effect on account of order of stay and further creation of State of Jharkhand vesting full control and jurisdiction over all the offices at Ranchi. That being so, this application by efflux of time has become infructuous and is, accordingly, dismissed. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
