ORDER : This Writ Miscellaneous Petition coming up for orders on this day, upon perusing the petition and the affidavit filed in support thereof and upon hearing the arguments of M/S.S.KUMAR, Advocate for the petitioner and of none appeared either in person or through by an advocate on behalf of the Respondent, the Court made the following order:-

has filed this Miscellaneous petition on 22.01.2020 to vacate the interim order granted by this Court on 17.10.2019.

A representation has been made that Mr.Johny Basha, learned counsel, who has filed the writ petition has now been changed and Mr.S.Deenadayalan, is the standing counsel for TANGEDCO. Therefore, a direction was issued to the vacate stay petitioner to serve a copy to the learned counsel for the TANGEDCO and the case was ordered to be listed on 20.09.2024. It appears that this matter was listed on 23.09.2024.

4.Though the main writ petition has been filed in the year 2019 as against the order passed by the Labour Court, Tirunelveli in I.D.No.25 of 2017, dated 16.08.2017, the TANGEDCO has not properly followed up the case. More over, the https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
