THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G. SHANKAR WRIT PETITION No.17210 OF 2000 ORDER: The petitioner was working as Additional Secretary in Tripuranthakam Primary Agricultural Co-operative Society, Prakasam District. Claiming his transfer to Dharakanipadu Primary Agricultural Co-operative Society as illegal, the petitioner laid the present petition seeking for a writ of mandamus to declare the action of the second respondent in transferring him as illegal. There is no representation for the writ petitioner. The learned standing counsel for the second respondent reported that the Writ Petition has become infructuous, since the petitioner had retired from service. The petitioner was described to be 51 years old in the Writ Petition. The Writ Petition was filed in 2000. If the petitioner was 51 years by 2000, he must be 61 years old now. Obviously, the petitioner must have retired from service. I, therefore, agree with the contention of the learned standing counsel for the second respondent that the Writ Petition has become infructuous. Accordingly, this Writ Petition is dismissed as infructuous. No costs. __________________ K.G.
