WP NO.41414 OF 2015

2. The Tender in question was notified to implement Soil Testing Programme for three years in the form of Soil Health Mission by analysing the Soil samples based on grid and issuing Soil Health cards as per the tender document produced at Annexures 'A' and 'B'. In that view of the matter, due to efflux of time, the prayer made in the writ petition has become infructuous. Accordingly, writ petition is dismissed as having become infructuous.

3. It is also relevant to mention that this Court in an identical matter in the case of NAGARJUNA AGRO CHEMICALS PVT. LTD. vs. STATE OF KARNTAKA AND OTHERS made in Writ Petition No.41413 of 2015 decided on 01st December, 2022, dismissed the writ petition based on the fact that the said mission was earmarked for three years. Accordingly, the prayer made in this writ petition also become infructuous.
