THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU W.P. No. 3346 of 1990 O R D E R: It appears, the petitioner was appointed as a Junior Lecturer on ad hoc basis on a consolidated pay of Rs.750/- per month in the respondent-Society, on 2.9.1986. His services were terminated on 7.4.1988. The writ petition was filed in the year 1990, challenging the said termination order. In fact, the writ petition was dismissed for default for non-payment of batta against respondent No.1. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner filed writ appeal and the said writ appeal was allowed and the matter was remanded. That is how the writ petition is pending for the last 20 years. Be that as it may, the petitioner was 28 years old at the time of filing writ petition and as of today he is more than 48 years old. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the opinion that due to afflux of time the cause in the writ petition does not survive for adjudication. The petitioner might be working somewhere and eking out his livelihood. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU. Date: 27-1-2010. MVB.
