THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE VENKATESWARLU NIMMAGADDA
WRIT PETITION NO: 29845 OF 2018 ORDER:
Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner(s)
2.
The petitioner filed this Writ Petition challenging the G.O.Rt.No.1072 dated 09.08.2018 as illegal, arbitrary and contrary to the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Charitable and Hindu Religious Institutions and Endowments Act, 1987 and also seeking a direction to the respondents to continue the petitioner herein as trust board member of the 3rd respondent. 3. On perusal of the record, admittedly the trust board is for a period of two years. The said period of two years was already completed by the year 2020 itself. Therefore, continuation of the petitioner as trust board member does not arise and the matter becomes infructuous. 4. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed as infructuous. There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending shall stand closed. __________________________________
