The petitioners have approached this Court seeking writ of mandamus for considering their claim for appointment to the posts of D.P.Es and for their appointment in accordance with their selection on merit. The grievance of the petitioners is that the persons lower in merit have been appointed ignoring their claim. Notice of motion was issued. Reply is yet to be filed. Today, Mr. Nehra states that he has received a communication from the Director of Secondary Education, Haryana, Panchkula, dated 23.6.2011 conveying an order that the relief claimed in the writ petition has been allowed to the petitioners. The communication also contains an order passed in favour of the petitioners. This fact is not disputed by the counsel for the petitioners. Since the necessary relief claimed in the writ petition has been allowed, the writ petition is rendered infructuous and is disposed of as such. July 06, 2011 (RANJIT SINGH) monika JUDGE
