Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the State-respondents.

The grievance of the petitioner is that respondent-authority is not issuing character certificate to the petitioner despite the fact that petitioner has submitted several representations to the respondent-authority for issuance of the same, but till date, no action has been taken on the same.

Learned Standing Counsel submits that no useful purpose would be served in keeping the writ petition pending and appropriate direction may be issued to the respondent no.2 to consider the grievance of the petitioner.
