The said writ petition was dismissed and W.A.No.591/2010 filed against the said judgment was also subsequently dismissed. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner has also endorsed the same. In the said circumstances, I do not think it necessary to delve into the facts and issues any further. Accordingly, these writ petitions are dismissed in the light of the judgment in W.P.(C) No.9556/2010 and W.A. No.591/2010. Sd/- (C.T.RAVIKUMAR, JUDGE) jma //true copy// P.A to Judge
