While admitting the writ petition, this court passed an interim order that pending further orders, the petitioners shall be permitted to appear the interview scheduled to be held on 11.01.2001 or thereafter, for the post of Watchman/Class-IV posts without insisting that their names should be sponsored from the employment exchange and interview them along with the other candidates sponsored by the employment exchange if they are otherwise found suitable. In pursuance of the directions given by this Court, the petitioners have appeared for the interview. As the main relief sought for by the petitioners in the writ petition has already been served, no cause survives in this writ petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. No costs. ______________ (K.C. BHANU, J) Date: 18.08.2005 Ksn
