This interim application has been filed in the pending writ petition being WP(C) No. 2041/2009, in which the petitioner, inter alia, has sought for an appropria te direction to the respondents, more particularly, the respondent No. 4 to forw ard his application before the IIT Roorkee, so as to facilitate his participatio n in a process for appointment to the post of Assistant Professor in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering of that Institute. This Court by order dated 27.05.2 009 had issued notice. The note sheet indicates that steps have been taken for service of notice on the respondent Nos. 2, 3 & 4 by registered post with A/D. It is, however, not clear that the notice has been served on the said respondent s meanwhile. By the instant application, the applicant has prayed for a directi on to the respondent No. 4 to issue a No Objection Certificate to him so as to e nable him to take the interview for the aforementioned post scheduled to be held on 30th and 31st August, 2009. A representation dated 14.08.2009 to the said e ffect has been submitted before the Director, NIT, Silchar, which according to t he applicant, remains unattended as on date. This Court, on a consideration of the pleaded facts and in absence of any demons trable materials to establish that notice of the instant proceeding has, in the meantime, been served on the respondent No. 4, is not inclined to accede to the prayer made for the present. However, having regard to the deadline for the int erview as referred to hereinabove, it is considered expedient to close this appl ication with a direction to the Director, NIT Silchar to take an appropriate dec ision on the petitioner’s representation dated 14.08.2009 by 26.08.2009. The miscellaneous application stands closed in the above terms.
