Holding
The writ petition is dismissed as it has become infructuous.
Summary
The Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (UPSRTC) filed a writ petition before the Allahabad High Court seeking relief. Over time, the petition became moot as the circumstances that gave rise to it ceased to exist. The Court observed that the petition was now infructuous due to the efflux of time. Consequently, the Court dismissed the writ petition on the ground of being infructuous. The interim order previously granted was vacated, but the parties were allowed to move an application for recall if any issue still persisted.
Issues considered
- Whether the writ petition filed by UPSRTC remains maintainable or has become infructuous.
