Respondents. ---- Mr. N.V. Bandiwadekar with Mr. Prabhu for for the Petitioners. Mr. A.H. Palekar, AGP for Respondents - State. ----- CORAM : D.K. DESHMUKH & V.M. KANADE, JJ. DATE : 29 th January, 2008. P.C.: 1. Both these Petitions are directed against the order passed on review application filed by the Petitioner before the Maharashtra Administrative Tribunal. The controversy 2 relates to sending constables for training course, so that they can be considered for promotion to the post of Inspector. Originally Petitions were filed for sending constables for training in 1994. One batch of petitions was allowed and the petitioners were sent for training, commencing from 10 th October, 1994. The other batch of Petitions was dismissed by the Maharashtra Administrative Tribunal by a speaking order in 1996. Against that order, review application was filed. That review application was dismissed on 10/11/2000. The Writ Petition No.1930 of 2002 was filed almost one year thereafter on 24/10/2001 and the Writ Petition No.1919 of 2002 was filed on 11/12/2001. 2. We have heard the learned Counsel for the Petitioner. Apart from the fact that we really do not find any fault with the order passed on the review application which is under challenge in both these Petitions, we find that considering the time that has elapsed from the year 1994, nothing now survives in these Petitions. Both the Petitions have become infructuous. They are disposed of as such. (D.K. DESHMUKH, J.) (V.M. KANADE, J.) 3
