T.John Britto, v. The Managing Director,

O R D E R This Writ Petition has been filed seeking a writ of mandamus against the order dated 13.12.2012 in ID No.73/2002 passed by the 2nd respondent insofar as the denial of 75% of back wages and to quash the same with a consequential direction to the first respondent to pay the wages from the date of dismissal of the date of superannuation along with the terminal benefits and other pensionary benefits.

¶2In the absence of the learned counsel for the petitioner, this case was listed from 10.07.2023 onwards under the caption 'for dismissal'. Today also, there is no representation for the petitioner.

¶3During the course of hearing. the learned counsel for the 1st respondent submits that against the same award, the 1st respondent filed W.P(MD)No.18652 of 2016 before this Court and the said Writ Petition was allowed by order dated 09.03.2018. The learned counsel has also placed a copy of the said order.

¶4On a perusal of the same, it appears that the order dated

13.12.2012 in ID.No.73/2022 is under challenge in the said Writ Petition. The said Writ petition was allowed and the award under challenge is set aside. In my considered view, no further adjudication is required in this Writ Petition in view of the fact that the order impugned in this Writ Petition has already been set aside by the order of this Court dated 09.03.2026 in W.P(MD)No.18652 of 2016.

¶5Accordingly, this Writ Petition is dismissed as infructuous.

¶4No costs.
