B.Charan Singh v. The Southern Power Distribution
Case brief
What is this about?
This common order dismissed multiple writ petitions filed by Assistant Divisional Engineers against TSSPDCL regarding cancellation of their promotions. The Court closed the petitions after respondents demonstrated that the grievances were redressed by a later regularization order following a Supreme Court decision.
What did the court decide?
All writ petitions are closed as no further orders need be passed since the grievance of the petitioners has been redressed by a subsequent order.
