Holding
The writ petition is dismissed as withdrawn because it has become infructuous.
Summary
The petitioner, Vivek Kumar, filed a civil writ petition before the Patna High Court challenging a decision of the Centralized Selection and Appointment Committee. While the petition was pending, the Committee published the waiting‑list results, which rendered the relief sought by the petitioner moot. The petitioner’s counsel therefore moved the court for permission to withdraw the writ petition on the ground that it had become infructuous. The court examined the request and, finding no objection, granted permission to withdraw. Consequently, the writ petition was dismissed as withdrawn.
Issues considered
- The petition was rendered infructuous by the publication of the waiting‑list results; can it be withdrawn at that stage?
