State Universities Act, 1973 as well as the regulations framed by the University Grant Commission.” 4. Learned counsel appearing for the University submits that he does not have the record of the case, therefore, he cannot make any statement in the matter. 5. From perusal of the relief clause, we are of the considered opinion that the writ petition 2025:UHC:3501-DB would have become infructuous by efflux of time, as the selection process initiated, pursuant to advertisement dated 04.11.2014 must have been completed by now. 6. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. (Ashish Naithani, .J.)
