What did the court decide?
Since the writ petition was filed only to seek a decision on the petitioner's pending representation, and that representation was decided by the authority concerned on 30.09.2020 — which decision has been assailed by the petitioner in WPC No. 4953 of 2021 — the present petition has become infructuous.
