THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY W.P.No.23875 of 2006 Date : 27-8-2010 Between : Rajiv Gandhi Memorial High School for Physically Handicapped, Challagundla, Nekarikallu (M), Guntur District, represented by its Correspondent Smt.N.Rosinamma w/o.late Benjman .. Petitioner And Government of Andhra Pradesh, represented by its Secretary, Department of School Education, A.P. Secretariat, Hyderabad and others .. Respondents Counsel for petitioner : Sri Boya Ravinder Reddy Counsel for respondents : G.P. for School Education The Court made the following : THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY W.P.No.23875 of 2006 ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed for a mandamus to set aside the proceedings Rc.No.474/S2/2004 dated 7-4-2004 and Rc.No.395/S2/2006 dated 29-8-2006 issued by the 2nd respondent and the consequential order dated 11-10-2006 issued by the 3rd respondent as arbitrary and illegal. The dispute raised in the Writ Petition pertains to admission of some of the posts in petitioner’s school into grant-in-aid. The petitioner filed W.P.M.P.No.26878/2010 seeking amendment of the writ prayer in order to question the proceedings dated 16-3-2007 issued by the 1st respondent and the consequential order dated 16-4- 2007 of 2nd respondent. At the hearing, Sri Boya Ravinder Reddy, the learned Counsel for the petitioner submitted that after the present Writ Petition was filed, the 2nd respondent has referred the petitioner’s claim to a high level committee on whose recommendation the 1st respondent has issued order dated 16-3-2007 rejecting the petitioner’s request for admission of the posts into grant-in-aid. In my opinion, the cause on which the Writ Petition was filed has ceased with the passing of a fresh order by the 1st respondent. Though the said order was passed as far back as 16-3-2007, the petitioner filed the application in the year 2010 for amending the Writ Petition. No reasons have been assigned by the petitioner for not filing the amendment application for more than three years. Inasmuch as a fresh cause of action has arisen for the petitioner, the Writ Petition is disposed of without going into the merits of the Writ Petition, with liberty to the petitioner to question Memo dated 16-3- 2007, subject to the right of the respondents to oppose the Writ Petition on all legally permissible grounds including the one relating to laches. As a sequel to disposal of the Writ Petition, W.P.M.P.No.26878/2010 is disposed of as infructuous. No costs. ________________________ Justice C.V.Nagarjuna Reddy Date : 27-8-2010 AM
