Eswaraiah) This Writ Petition is filed by the petitioners B. Nageswara Rao and B. Neela for not passing any interim order by the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad in O.A. No.3412 of 2000. 2. It is stated that the petitioners filed O.A. No.3412 of 2000 before the Administrative Tribunal for consideration of their case for appointment to the post of Teachers in Girijana Vidya Vikas Kendras in Khammam District pursuant to the notification dated 15-06-2000 and pending disposal of the O.A., they sought for an interim direction to receive their applications and permit them for selection process for appointment to those posts. 3. It is stated that the Tribunal did not pass any interim order in the O.A. and aggrieved of the same, this writ petition is filed in 2000 and this Court while admitting the writ petition on 05-07-2000, passed interim direction directing the respondents to receive the application from the petitioners and permit them for selection process for appointment to the post of Teachers. 4. In view of the interim order dated 05-07-2000 of this Court, selection process must have been completed long back. In view of the same, we are of the opinion that there is no need to consider the other relief sought for by the petitioners, since the same is subject matter of the O.A. and this writ petition was filed pending disposal of that O.A. Thus, nothing survives in this writ petition for adjudication and therefore the petition has become infructuous. However, if the petitioners desire, they can approach the competent authority for the appropriate relief. 5. In the circumstances, the writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. No order as to costs. __________________ V. ESWARAIAH, J July 23, 2009. __________________ P. SWAROOP REDDY, J DS/PV
