When the matter is taken up today, none appears for the petitioners as well as the respondents. The relief sought by the petitioners to release water to their villages under the Ayakat of Dindi Project is for 1995-96 Rabi season only and by lapse of time the prayer in the Writ Petition has become infructuous. Hence, the Writ Petition is dismissed as having become infructuous. No costs. ______________ (N.V.
