At the hearing, Smt N.Shoba, learned counsel for the petitioners, and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Mines and Geology submitted that in view of the local agitation, the public auction was not held in pursuance of the impugned notification. In view of the same, the cause in the writ petition does not survive for consideration. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed as infructuous. Liberty is, however, given to the petitioners to question the notification, if any, issued in future proposing to auction the sand reach in question. As a sequel to dismissal of main petition as infructuous, WPMP No.14662 of 2010 filed by the petitioners for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous.
