He submits that the copy of order passed in W.P.No.11268/2010 is furnished by filing a memo. AGA therefore, submits that the memo may be placed on record and an appropriate order may be passed. The oral submission made by AGA and the memo is placed on record. 5. A careful perusal of the order dated 06.09.2010 passed in W.P.No.11268/2010 reflects that the petitioner had approached this Court seeking direction to the respondents to pay a sum of Rs.6,95,775/- with 18% interest from 1999. This court while disposing the Writ Petition has held that the relief sought by the petitioner is in the nature of a suit for recovery of the amount. Hence, exposing the cause again by filing a second Writ Petition is untenable. The Writ Petition is devoid of merits and is liable to be rejected. 6. Resultantly, the Writ Petition is rejected.
