Mr. Mahesh Prasad learned counsel for the Railways is present and submits that the writ petition has become infructuous, since it was filed for quashing of letter dated 27.06.2005 by which Adhoc Executive Committee of the Branch Committee of All India Schedule Caste and Schedule Tribe 2 Railway Employees Association had been constituted. Learned counsel submits that as per the memorandum of Association itself, it is clear that the tenure of such Committee is three years and because of flux of time, the same already having elapsed long time back and the writ petition has now become infructuous. This Court finds substances in the contention of learned counsel for the Railways. Accordingly, the writ petition stands disposed off. SKM (Ahsanuddin Amanullah, J.)
