Counsel for the University is present. The following prayer of the petitioner in this writ application:- “(i)For giving direction the respondents to make payment of revised scale salary of the petitioner @ Rs.8800/- with 18% interest over the accumulated amount of the revised scale salary for the period 13.8.99 to 24.11.99 and 01.02.2000 to 24.5.2000.” has been answered by the respondents in paragraph nos.5, 6 and 10 of the counter affidavit wherein it has been stated that the petitioner’s appointment was made under the scheme which was terminated on 20.12.2000 and the payment of salary to her was also made as per fund released under the scheme. In that view of the matter, when the petitioner has also not filed any rejoinder to the said counter affidavit, copy whereof was served on the counsel for the petitioner on 8.9.2004 itself, 2 there would be hardly any scope to entertain this writ application after expiry of the scheme. That being so, this application is wholly misconceived and is accordingly dismissed. Abhay Kumar ( Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
