A bare reading of the order referred to above reveals that the petition preferred by the petitioner was disposed of by the Writ Court with a direction to District Programme Officer, ICDS, Rajouri to decide the representation submitted by the petitioner within a specified time. Statement of facts/objections has been submitted on behalf of the respondent. Which shows as per the ICDS norms, no applicant/candidate can be engaged against any vacant post of Anganwari Worker in the ICDS Project except in her own ward/hamlet. Hence the claim of the petitioner was rejected. Copy of the disposal order passed by the respondent-Authorities, in this regard, appended as annexure R-1. That being so, nothing substantive survives in the petition, the same is, accordingly, disposed of as having been rendered infructuous. ( (ARUN PALLI) CHIEF JUSTICE Jammu 30.04.2026 Suraj K.
