Cho udhury, learned counsel for the respondent municipal board; and Mrs VL Singh, le arned state counsel appearing for the state respondents. The petitioners by the present petition have prayed for a direction to t he respondent municipal board to consider their applications dated 15.12.2006, 1 9.12.2006 & 24.4.2007 filed for allotment of rooms in the market constructed by the board, in terms of the order dated 14.11.06 passed by this Court in WP(C) No .333/2001. In Misc Case No.3204/09 arising out of the present writ petition, an int erim order was passed on 2.12.09 directing the Nalbari municipal board not to al lot the vacant shop rooms to any party until disposal of the writ petition. The board has filed MC No.460/10 before this Court contending interalia that it has decided to allot the rooms to each of the petitioners in the market construc ted by it. Mr Sarma, learned senior counsel for the petitioners has submitted that in view of the said decision, the Municipal Board may be directed to put the pet itioners in possession of the rooms. Since the respondent board has taken the decision to allot the shop room s to the petitioners, the cause in the writ petition does not survive, and hence the same stands closed. The board, however, pursuant to its decision as reflect ed in MC No.460/10 shall allot the rooms, and the petitioners, thereafter, shall be at liberty to occupy the same. The writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
