THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NO.18524 OF 2000 DATED 31ST OCTOBER, 2011 BETWEEN K.Ramachandra Reddy …Petitioner And Govt. of A.P. rep. by its Principal Secretary, Education Department, Hyderabad and others. …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NO.18524 OF 2000 ORDER: The petitioner, a Professor in Osmania University, was aged about 59 years at the time of institution of this writ petition. He sought to challenge G.O.Ms.No.208, Higher Education (UE.II.1) Department, dated 29.06.1999 in so far as it provided for superannuation of University Teachers at the age of 60 years and prayed for a consequential declaration that he was entitled to be retained and continued in service till he attained the age of 62 years. No interim orders were passed in the writ petition at the time of its admission. The issue raised by the petitioner has therefore become purely academic and it would not be feasible for this Court to turn back the clock at this late stage and grant the petitioner relief for the period during which he did not render service. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed as infructuous. No costs. ____________________ SANJAY KUMAR, J. 31ST OCTOBER, 2011. VGSR/PGS
