IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.15519 of 2006 GOPAL JEE LAL Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- Counsel for the Petitioner :- Mr. R.K. Shukla For the Govt. of India :- Mr. S.N. Pathak For the State :- Mr. R.K. Prasad, S.C. 1 2 24.2.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner. At the outset, counsel for the State would submit that the grievance for which this writ application was filed stands redressed inasmuch as the payment of pension which was stopped under the order of some authorities of the State Government, has already been restored. Mr. Shukla, however, in reply, submits that it appears that the authorities of the State Government have also submitted certain report to the Central Government as with regard to the grant of pension to the petitioner and as such, this Court should direct the Central Government to pass an order. In the opinion of this Court, the scope of this writ application is totally confined to removal of the stoppage of pension under the orders of some authorities of the State Government and the moment the same was already restored, as stands admitted in the submission of Mr. Shukla, nothing survives for adjudication at least in this case. Whenever on recommendation of the State 2 Government, the Central Government takes any adverse decision, it will be always open for the petitioner to move this Court. That being so, this application has become infructuous and the same is accordingly dismissed. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
