IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.7476 of 1998 Santosh Kumar Gupta Son of Shri Tulsi Ram Sao, resident of village & post Kalikapur, PS Potka, District East Singhbhum, presently posted as Inspector of Police, S K Puri Police Station, Patna -13 ……Petitioner Versus 1. The State Of Bihar & Ors ……Respondents ---------------------------------- 08- 15/12/2011 Learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State are present. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the writ petition was basically filed for promotion of the petitioner to the post of Deputy Superintendent of Police and now during pendency of the writ application the same has been granted to the petitioner. However, he further submits that the effective date is not proper. Since the grievance of the petitioner as far as the promotion to the post of Dy.S.P. was concerned, as per the learned counsel for the petitioner himself, has been redressed, this Court feels that no purpose would be served by keeping this writ application pending. If the petitioner has any grievance with regard to the effective date of the promotion granted to him, it is a fresh cause of action for which he may take appropriate action. 2. For the reasons aforesaid, the writ application stands disposed of. mrl (Ahsanuddin Amanullah, J.)
