Deshpande, J.) : 1. The present petition came to be filed by the petitioner on 11th March 2004. At more than one places in the petition, it is emphatically stated that the petitioner would cross the age bar in June 2004. By this petition, the petitioner is seeking appointment on the ground that he is a project affected person. 2. On the own showing of the petitioner, he has crossed the upper age limit in June 2004. It is obvious that there cannot be any relaxation of upper age limit to accommodate the petitioner. Hence, by passage of time, the petition is rendered infructuous. (3) 3. Hence, the petition is dismissed as having become infructuous. Rule is discharged. There shall be no order as to costs. ( N.D. DESHPANDE ) ( A.P.
