Thumadu village, Jarugumalli Mandal, Prakasam District RR 5to28 impleaded as per court order dt. 27-1-2006 in WPMP No. 33437 of 2005 ...RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.C.RAMACHANDRA RAJU Counsel for respondents 5 to 28: Mrs.Marie Desai Counsel for respondents 1, 3 & 4: AGP FOR ENDOWMENTS Counsel for respondent No.2: None appeared. The Court made the following : O R D E R: This writ petition is filed for a writ of Mandamus to set aside reauction notification dated 17-08-2005, whereby public auction of leasehold rights in respect of Acs.28.00 of land covered by Survey No.63/1 of Thumadu Village in pursuance of proceedings dated 30-07- 2005 issued by respondent No.3 was proposed to be held. At the hearing, it has come out that in pursuance of the interim stay granted by this Court on 23-08-2005, the proposed auction was not held. A perusal of the impugned auction notification also shows that the period for which the auction is proposed to be held is also coming to an end in a short while from now. Inasmuch as the proposed auction has become abortive, in view of the interim stay granted by this Court, the cause in the writ petition does not survive for consideration. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. As a sequel to dismissal of main petition as infructuous, WVMP No.166 of 2006 is dismissed as infructuous.
