THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE V. ESWARAIAH WRIT PETITION No.18285 OF 1995 DATED: 19-09-2006 BETWEEN C Janardhan Rao & 10 others …PETITIONERS AND The Management of IDL Chemicals Limited Sanathnagar, Hyderabad-18 & 2 others …RESPONDENTS ORDER: Eleven workmen of PETN Drying Section of IDL Chemicals Limited filed this writ petition seeking a Writ of Mandamus to restrain the Management of the first respondent from giving effect to the settlement dated 17.06.1995. This Court initially granted interim suspension of the impugned settlement but the same was subsequently vacated by order dated 16.10.1995 in WVMP.No.2080 of 1995 keeping in view the fact that similar settlement was entered into between the parties on 07.02.1991 and the said settlement was not disputed and accordingly held that the impugned settlement dated 17.06.1995 has to be given effect. In view of the aforesaid order vacating the interim suspension, I am of the opinion that no cause of action survives in this writ petition. However, when the matter has been taken up for hearing on 12.09.2006 none appeared for the petitioners, hence, the matter was directed to be listed under the caption for dismissal. Even today, when the matter is taken up for hearing, neither the petitioners appear nor there is any representation on their behalf. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed for non-prosecution. No costs. ______________ V. ESWARAIAH, J September 19, 2006 DSK
