Case brief
AI extract
What is this about?
In this writ petition, the petitioner challenged an order assigning Director functions to a junior and sought appointment as regular Director. The single-judge bench dismissed the petition as infructuous because the petitioner had retired on superannuation before the case was heard, rendering the relief moot.
What did the court decide?
The prayer to appoint the petitioner as regular Director and withdraw the impugned circular was denied as the petition was disposed of as infructuous due to her prior retirement.
