CWP No.14043 of 1989 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C. W. P. No. 14043 of 1989 Date of Decision: 1 - 7 - 2010 Iqbal Singh ....Petitioner v. State of Punjab and others ....Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA *** Present: None for the petitioner. Mr.J.S.Puri, Addl. A.G., Punjab for respondents No.1 and 2. None for respondents No.3 to 5. *** KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA, J. (ORAL) Mr.T.S.Dhindsa, Advocate has caused appearance on behalf of the petitioner on 3.3.2010. Nobody appeared on behalf of the petitioner on 7.4.2010. On 29.6.2010 also nobody was present for the petitioner. In the present writ petition, petitioner has challenged the promotion of respondents No.3 to 5 and further prayed that respondent-State of Punjab be directed to consider claim of the petitioner for appointment to the post of Excise and Taxation Officer, on the basis of seniority list, Annexure P2, attached with the present writ petition. A perusal of the seniority list, Annexure P2, reveals that date of birth of the petitioner CWP No.14043 of 1989 [2] recorded is 2.10.1943. By now the petitioner may have retired. Therefore, it seems that by efflux of time, the petitioner might have lost his interest in the present writ petition. Hence, the present writ petition is disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to revive the same, if any grievance subsists. ( KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA ) July 1, 2010. JUDGE RC
