CORAM : SRI JUSTICE CHALLA GUNARANJAN DATE : 8th May 2026
JUDGMENT:
Sri T.S.Madhu, learned counsel, representing learned counsel for petitioners, submits that despite directions of this Court to the respondents to declare the results of the interview conducted in February/March, 2007, for the post of Junior Lineman, the respondents have not honoured the same. Therefore, the present Contempt Case survives.
2. Final order in the writ petition came to be passed on 26.11.2007, and thereafter, present Contempt Case has been preferred in the year
2010. Due to efflux of time, cause in the Contempt Case does not really survive.

3. However, learned counsel for the petitioners states that as there is a consequential direction to the respondents that in case the petitioners were successful in the interview, their cases since were
directed to be considered in the existing vacancies, there is a possibility of petitioners securing employment.
4. In view of the same, the Contempt Case stands closed, granting liberty to the petitioners to revive the same in case any cause survives. No order as to costs.
As a sequel, miscellaneous petitions pending consideration, if any, in this case shall stand closed.
