Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.A.KAMESHWARA RAO Counsel for the Respondents : Government Pleader for Social Welfare The Court made the following : ( per GM,J ) This writ petition is filed seeking to issue appropriate writ, order or direction declaring the AP Ordinance No.17 of 1995, dated 13-11-1995 as unconstitutional, ultra-vires, illegal and arbitrary and to pass such other order or orders as are deemed fit and proper in the circumstances of the case. The case of the petitioner is that he was appointed as Chairman of the AP Backward Classes Co-operative Finance Corporation Limited for a period of two years and orders to that effect were issued in GO Ms.No.19, dated 2-5- 1995 and accordingly he taken charge on 10-5-1995. The grievance of the petitioner is that by the impugned Ordinance the non-official Chairman or President and non-official Director or member, as the case may be, was ordered to be ceased to hold such office forthwith including his post as Chairman in the 3rd respondent-Corporation. However, when the matter is taken up for hearing, it is represented by learned Government Pleader for Social Welfare that the Ordinance is replaced by a legislation by the AP Legislative Assembly and as such this writ petition has become infructuous. Inasmuch as the impugned Ordinance is replaced by an Act and further inasmuch as the term of the petitioner was only for a period of two years and that terms has since been over, nothing survives in this writ petition for adjudication. The writ petition is, therefore, dismissed. No costs. _______________________ Ghulam Mohammed, J 17-3-2005 Nrg. ASST.
