THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO.14846 OF 2000 ORDER: Sri B.Siva Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner, would submit that this Writ Petition is filed by the petitioner who was then working as Head Clerk seeking promotion to the higher post of Special Assistant; during the pendency of this Writ Petition, the petitioner suffered the punishment of reversion to the post of Assistant Clerk, and as a result, the cause in the Writ petition does not necessitate adjudication, as the Writ petition has become infructuous and that he be permitted to withdraw the Writ Petition. Learned counsel would, however, seek liberty of this Court to question the validity of the order of reversion in appropriate proceedings. The Writ Petition is, accordingly, dismissed as withdrawn with liberty to the petitioner to question the validity of the order of reversion, as Assistant Clerk, in appropriate proceedings. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _______________________ (RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J) 5th August 2010 RRB
