Hon’ble Mr. Justice Amitendra Kishore Prasad Order on Board RAVVA UTTEJ KUMAR RAJU Digitally signed by RAVVA UTTEJ KUMAR RAJU Date: 2026.08.22 10:59:31 +0530 2 21/08/2026 1. At the very outset, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the present writ petition was instituted on the ground that the demand in question had not been adjudicated by the concerned respondent-Electricity Department prior to issuance of the recovery notice. He, however, submits that during the pendency of the present proceedings, the said demand has since been duly adjudicated. In view thereof, the grievance of the petitioner no longer survives and the relief sought in the present writ petition has become infructuous. Learned counsel, therefore, submits that the writ petition may be disposed of as having become infructuous. 2. Learned counsel appearing for the State/respondents has no objection to the aforesaid prayer. 3. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, the present writ petition is accordingly dismissed as having become infructuous. Sd/- (Amitendra Kishore Prasad) Judge U.K. Raju
