IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO. 1455 OF 2005 Shri Nanda Dnyanoba Kumbhar .... Petitioner V/s The Sub Divisional Officer, Bhor, Pune.... ..... Respondents Mr.H.D. Gole, Adv. For the petitioner. Mr.Y.D.Mulani, AGP for the State. CORAM: V.G. PALSHIKAR AND D.B. BHOSALE, JJ. 11.10.2005. PC: By this petition the petitioner seeks mandamus directing the respondents to implement communication dated 10.12.2001 by which the petitioner was required to complete certain formalities and was informed that if he does not complete those formalities appointment letter will not be issued. The contention of the petitioner is that he did complete the formalities yet latter was not issued. 2. According to the petitioner himself the appointment was for a period of two years. The qualifications required for being appointed as Police Patil then were fulfilled by the petitioner. After the issue of letter dated 10.12.2001 the recruitment requirements were amended and from 1.5.2002 appointment could be made to the post of Police Patil only from amongst those who have passed X standard examination. Even if the petitioner had received the appointment his term would have ended in 2003. There is no possibility of it being extended because of the change in qualifications during that period. No fruitful purpose will be served by entertaining this petition. Hence it is dismissed.
