By impugned letter, the second respondent informed all the minority colleges having MBA and MCA courses requesting to furnish details of unfilled seats to the Convenor after admitting candidates against the minority quota seats. This Court passed interim orders on 06.9.2002 in WPMP No.18668 of 2002 in the following terms: Pending further orders in the writ petition, the petitioner-college can fill up the left over seats in M.B.A & M.C.A course strictly in accordance with G.O. Ms. No.150, Minorities Welfare (M & R) department dt.11.8.2000 and forward the list of admitted candidates to the Minority Welfare Department by marking a copy to the Government. On forwarding of such list, the third respondent shall pass necessary orders, as Govt’s Memo. No.13111/E.C1/2001-4 dt.9.11.2001, prima facie, is not a general direction and is confined only to one Don Bosco Educational Society as a clarification, and approval / disapproval of the said list may be intimated to the Petitioner-college within one week from the date of receipt of such list with reasons. The petitioner does not make out any grievance insofar as following the rules in G.O. Ms. No.150 dated 11.8.2001. Indeed the learned Counsel for petitioner college submits that the petitioner college has already made admissions for the academic year 2002-2003 in accordance with G.O. Ms. No.150 and those admissions were already approved by the competent authority. In that view of the matter nothing survives in this writ petition. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of, in terms of the interim order. ____________ October 27, 2004. V.V.S. RAO, J YS To 1.
