Sri.M.Mohammed Shafi, the learned Government Pleader appearing for respondents 2 and 3 brought to my notice that the Additional Labour Commissioner has by order dated 5.8.2011 finalised the list of contract line workers who are eligible to be considered for appointment as Electricity Workers in the Kerala State Electricity Board and therefore the relief prayed for by the petitioner cannot be granted. Faced with that situation, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner sought permission to withdraw the writ petition reserving liberty with the petitioner to challenge the order dated 5.8.2011 passed by the Additional Labour Commissioner and seek appropriate reliefs. Leave granted as prayed for and the writ petition is dismissed as withdrawn reserving liberty with the petitioner to challenge the order dated 5.8.2011 passed by the second respondent.
