Date of decision: 08-04-2010 JUDGMENT Coram: Hon’ble J.S. Khehar, C.J. Hon’ble Sudhanshu Dhulia, J. J.S. KHEHAR, C. J. (Oral) The appellants sought admission in Class-VI under the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya. The aforesaid admission, having been declined to the appellants, they approached this Court by filing Writ Petition (M/S) No. 950 of 2009. The aforesaid writ petition was dismissed by a learned Single Judge of this Court on 07.10.2009. Through the instant special appeal, the appellants have assailed the order dated 07.10.2009, disposing of Writ Petition (M/S) No. 950 of 2009. Learned counsel for the appellants commenced his submissions by informing us, that the appellants had sought admission to Class-VI for the academic session 2009-10, and that, the aforesaid academic session has come to an end. In the aforesaid view of the matter, it is apparent, that the instant special appeal has been rendered infructuous and the pleas advanced by the learned counsel for the appellants are of mere academic interest now. In view of the above, the instant special appeal is dismissed as having been rendered infructuous. The issues canvassed at the hands of the learned counsel for the appellants shall, however, remain open, in case 2 the appellants choose to seek admission again with the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya. The instant special appeal stands disposed of accordingly. Amit (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) (J.S. Khehar, C. J.) 08.04.2010 08.04.2010
