Heard learned counsel for the parties. 2. Ms.Mudbidri, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that in view of the observations made by this court in the order dated 26.8.2009 the petitioners had approached respondent no.3 for seeking regularization of the tenement in their possession under Regulation 25 of the Estate Management Regulations, 1981. The said application made by the petitioners has been allowed by respondent no.3 vide order dated 27.11.2009. In the circumstances there is no dispute that the order impugned in the present writ petition renders ineffective insofar as the petitioners are concerned. Hence the impugned order shall not be executed against the petitioners. In the circumstances the writ petition has become infructuous and disposed of as such. (D. B. Bhosale, J.)
