This writ petition has been filed seeking a Writ of Mandamus, directing the respondents to issue consequential posting orders pursuant to the proceedings bearing Ref.No.15885/N1/2/2018-737 dated 12.01.2026 issued by the second respondent.
2. This matter earlier came up for consideration on four occasions, viz., 25.08.2026, 03.09.2026, 15.09.2026 and 21.09.2026 and it was brought to the notice of this Court that the proceedings dated 12.01.2026 issued by the second respondent has been cancelled as the name of the petitioner has been included in the said proceedings mistakenly and the matter was adjourned to enable the learned Additional Government Pleader to produce a copy of the proceedings whereby the proceedings dated 12.01.2026 has been cancelled.
3. Today the learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the respondents has placed before this Court a copy of the proceedings bearing Ref.No.15885/N1/2/2018 dated 09.03.2026.
