ORDER
Date : 03.09.2026 Heard Mr. P. Bordoloi, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner. Also heard Mr. R. M. Das, learned Standing Counsel for the NCHAC.
2. The challenge made in this writ petition is to the order dated 07.07.2026 passed by the Additional Director, Handloom and Textiles, Haflong, Dima Hasao, by which the petitioner is sought to be released from the establishment as per decision taken by the authority of NCHAC, Haflong, on the purported ground that the service of the petitioner is not required by the authority of NCHAC.
3. The petitioner was appointed as Peon in the Office of the Inspector, Handloom & Textiles, WESW, Maibong, along with 5 others in various posts vide order dated 28.01.2016, by the Assistant Director, Handloom & Textile, Dima Hasao, Haflong.
4. It is the specific case of the petitioner that, having been appointed on a regular basis pursuant to a due selection process, the release of the petitioner from the establishment is illegal, as a regular employee cannot be released at the whims and fancies of the authority on the purported ground that his service are no longer required.
5. Mr. R. M. Das, learned Standing Counsel for the NCHAC, on instructions, submits that the impugned order has been withdrawn.
6. In view of the above, no issue survives to be adjudicated upon.
7. Accordingly, the writ petition stands closed. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
