HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN W.P.NO. 21026 OF 1997 Between: Health University Non-Teaching Employees’ Union and others … Petitioners and The Government of Andhra Pradesh represented By its Secretary, Health Medical and Family Welfare Department and others … Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN W.P.NO. 21026 OF 1997 ORAL ORDER: Sri M. Srikanth, learned counsel for the petitioners, would submit that while the relief sought for in this writ petition is to declare the action of the respondents in placing employees of the “Siddhartha Medical College” above employees of the University of Health Sciences in the seniority list as illegal, subsequent to the filing of the writ petition, the Government had initially issued G.O.Ms.No.507 dated 22.12.2000, followed by Act 15 of 2001, de-linking several colleges including “Siddhartha Medical College”, from the control of the University of Health Sciences. According to the learned counsel, since the “Siddhartha Medical College” is no longer a college of the University of Health Sciences and is now a Government Medical College, the cause in the writ petition does not survive adjudication and has become infructuous. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed as infructuous. No costs. ---------------------------------------- RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J DATE: 28.2.2007 CVM
