By this application, the applicant – original respondent No.2 seeks modification of the ad-interim order dated 25.06.2026 by which, this Court directed the respondent – University to hold the interview of the petitioner on 29.06.2026 for the post of Professor in Environmental Science and on 30.06.2026 for the post of Professor in Botany. However, the result of the interview was directed to be kept separately, and the appointments on both the said posts were not to be finalized until further orders. 2026:BHC-AUG:33598-DB 2 66.CA.7568.26.odt 2. The learned advocate for the applicant original-respondent No.2 submits that the interviews are held and the results are yet not declared. Since the entire selection process is held up, the University may be permitted to declare the result of the interview. Since learned advocate for the applicant has assured that the petitioner’s case would be considered on merits while declaring the result, the application is allowed in terms of prayer Clause ‘B’ which reads as follows : “B. This Hon’ble Court may kindly, vacate, alter, or modify the ad- interim order dated 25.06.2026 passed in Writ Petition No.6405 of 2026 to the extent that it restrains the Applicant University from finalizing the selection and appointment process.” 3. As the Civil Application is allowed, thereby, modifying the ad-interim order passed by this Court, writ petition also stands disposed of as nothing survives in the same. 4. In case the petitioner has any grievance about the selection or select list, he may avail the appropriate remedy as available under the Maharashtra Universities Act, 1994. 5. Writ petition is accordingly disposed of. (ABASAHEB D. SHINDE, J.) (NITIN B. SURYAWANSHI, J.) habeeb/
