There is no necessity of going into all the details. It is suffice to notice that in view of certain developments as to categorization of Scheduled Castes into A,B,C and D groups and also providing women reservation, some problem arose and, therefore, the respondent- University thought it fit not to proceed with the notification dated 20-3-1997. In view of the same, nothing survives for further adjudication in the Writ Petition. The Writ Petition is, therefore, closed. 18-3-2008 prk
