¶16

This writ petition has been filed challenging the order dated 08.12.2022 (Annexure P-1), whereby the petitioner, who was working as Executive Engineer (on deputation) with respondent No. 1 was placed under suspension and his headquarters was fixed at Chhattisgarh Housing Board, Raipur Division. Challenging the same, this writ petition was filed and this Court vide order dated 09.01.2023, while issuing notice to the respondents, stayed the effect and operation of the impugned order dated 08.12.2022. It

¶17

¶18

appears that the interim order passed by this Court on 09.01.2023 has remained in operation till date. It has been informed at the Bar that the petitioner has since been repatriated to his parent department under the Central Government.

¶19

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that since the impugned order was stayed by this Court and the interim order passed by this Court, the same could not be acted upon. He further submits that as the petitioner has now been repatriated to his parent department under the Central Government, the purpose of the impugned order no longer survives and by quashing the impugned order, the present writ petition may be disposed of.

¶20

Learned counsel for respondent No. 1 objected to the prayer made by learned counsel for the petitioner. However, could not dispute that the petitioner has been repatriated to his parent department under the Central Government.

¶21

Be that as it may, it cannot be disputed that the petitioner has already been repatriated to the parent department. Taking into consideration the submissions made herein-above, that the impugned order was passed in the year 2022 but could not be enforced due to the interim order passed by this Court, which has continued till date. Accordingly, this Court does not find any necessity to continue Annexure P-1.

¶22

In view of the above, the writ petition is disposed of and Annexure P-1 is hereby set aside. However, liberty is reserved to the respondents to proceed against the petitioner in accordance with law.

¶23

All pending application, if any, are disposed of.
