This writ petition is filed with following prayers:

i. call for the records relating to the illegal appointments in the 3rd respondent bank pursuant to Exhibit P1 notification and quash the same by issuing a writ of certiorari or any other appropriate writ, order or direction:

ii. issue a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ, order or direction commanding the respondents 1 and 2 to order an enquiry into the serious allegations regarding the functioning of the 3rd respondent bank including the allegations contained in Exhibits P3 and P4 representations.

iii. issue a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ, order or direction commanding respondents 1 and 2 to conduct an audit of the 3 rd respondent bank in order to ascertain its financial state;

iv. grant such other and further reliefs as deemed by this Hon'ble Court fit and proper to grant in the facts and circumstances of this case.

2. This writ petition is filed challenging Ext.P1

notification. No interim order is passed in this case. Probably

the appointment based on Ext.P1 notification might have been

completed and the appointees might have joined in service.

3. In such circumstances, this writ petition need not

be entertained at this distance of time. Moreover, the service

of notice on the 5th respondent is not complete.

Therefore, this writ petition is closed.
