Counsel for the Petitioner : MR.C.DAMODHAR REDDY Counsel for the Respondents : GP FOR SCHOOL EDUCATION The Court made the following : O R D E R : Petitioner was elected as Chairman of the Education Committee of Zilla Parishad High School, Pallerla, Atmakur Mandal, Nalgonda District, on 28-4-1999 for a period of two years. Even before the term is expired, it appears, the second respondent issued a notification on 27-11-2000 proposing elections to the Education Committee. The petitioner assails the same in this writ petition. This Court while admitting the writ petition, passed interim orders directing the respondents to consider the representation of the petitioner. It is brought to my notice by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for School Education that the term of the Education Committee is one year, and therefore, election notification was issued. Be that as it is, even assuming that the petitioner was elected for a period of two years, the same has expired, and therefore, nothing remains to be adjudicated in this writ petition. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed as infructuous. No costs. _______________ (V.V.S. RAO, J.) Dt.18-08-2004. Msr. To 1. The District Educational Officer, Nalgonda. 2.
