O R A L J U D G M E N T (Per Smt.Vasanti A Naik, J.)
By this writ petition, the petitioners had challenged the
order of the Joint Director of Higher Education, Nagpur dated
18/11/2011, directing the petitioner No.2 to join on the post of
registrar in R.S.Mundle Dharampeth Arts and Commerce College as the
post of registrar in C.P.and Berar College, Nagpur where the petitioner
No.2 was working, was declared excess.
We had admitted the writ petition and granted interim
relief in favour of the petitioners. At the relevant time, this court had
prima facie found that the post on which the petitioner No.2 was
working in C.P. and Berar College, Nagpur could not have been
declared as excess.
However, it is brought to the notice of this court by the
learned counsel for the parties that during the pendency of the writ
petition, the strength of the students in C.P. and Berar College had
dwindled and the post of the registrar on which the petitioner No.2 is
working is rendered surplus. It is therefore fairly stated on behalf of the
petitioners that the petitioner No.2 is ready to comply with the
impugned order and join the duties as a registrar in R.S.Mundle
Dharampeth Arts and Commerce College.
0407WP6270.11-Judgment 3/3
Shri Dhumale, the learned Assistant Government Pleader
appearing for the respondent Nos.1 to 3, states on instructions that the
post of registrar in R.S.Mundle Dharampeth Arts and Commerce College
is still vacant and the petitioner No.2 is free to join his duties on the
said post, immediately.
Hence, by accepting the statements made on behalf of the
parties, we dispose of the writ petition with no order as to costs.
