The petitioner has prayed for quashing the selection to 23 posts of office Secretary-ship in the Vocational Education Department of the State of Haryana. The petitioner is himself a candidate of BCA category. He has impleaded five private respondents regarding whom he has made specific allegations of irregularities. However, these respondents are from CWP No. 2499 of 2008 2 General category. Learned counsel for the petitioner could not deny that to be able to succeed in having the entire selection quashed it was necessary that all the selected persons should have been impleaded as a party. Learned counsel for the petitioner then stated that he may be permitted to withdraw this petition with permission to file a fresh one after impleading the necessary parties. It was the opinion of this Court that having continued this petition for the past one and a half year during which time this petition has come up many times this prayer should be allowed only if costs were imposed. However, learned counsel for the petitioner has stated that he is not prepared to pay costs. Consequently this writ petition is dismissed since necessary parties have not been impleaded.
