P No. 4 (Dr. Sukanat Kumar Mohapatra) to run and administer the educational institution (petitioner No. 2), in complete violations of the aforesaid polices evolved by the Government of India under Annexure-5 series and to take needful legal actions against the authorities concerned for such violations of the sovereign policies of the Government of India.
Further, may kindly be pleased to issue appropriate writ/s direction/s directing the AICTE and its authorities not to allot AICTE „USER-ID‟ and pass word of the petitioner No. 2 - institute to O.P No. 4 or his men/agent/power of attorney.
Also, may be pleased to issue any appropriate writ/s, and / or pass any order/s, direction/s, as may deem just and proper for the ends of justice.”
3. Mr. Das, learned counsel for the Petitioner submits that in the meantime, the founder – Secretary of Petitioner No-1 Trust has already expired, who was imparting instructions in the matter to him. After his sad demise, no instruction is being imparted to him in spite of best efforts. Hence, he does not want to press the writ petition. A memo in support of his submission is also filed in Court, which is taken on record.
4. Accordingly, Writ Petition is disposed of as not pressed.
