At the hearing, Sri P.Nagendra Reddy, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that this Court by order, dated 05.12.2008 directed status quo obtaining on that day to be maintained and that as the party office was already opened by that time, it started functioning and is accordingly in existence as on today in the said premises. The learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home pointed out that the impugned order shows that the same will remain in force for a period of two (2) months and that there is no material to show that the said order was extended later. For the above-mentioned reasons, the cause in the writ petition does not survive for consideration and the writ petition is accordingly, disposed of as infructuous. As a sequel to disposal of main petition as infructuous, interim order, dated 05.12.2008 is vacated and WPMP.No.34891 of 2008 is dismissed. C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 3rd JUNE, 2009. kvni
