    The Madras High Court closed writ petition WP/25884/2008 as infructuous on June 2, 2026. Dr. R. Kandasamy had challenged the appointment of Dr. A. Sekar as Chief Cane Development Officer on December 23, 2005, contending the recruitment violated constitutional principles by using communal rotation-based reservation instead of merit-based selection. The petitioner's counsel conceded that the cause no longer survived consideration, and the court accordingly dismissed the petition with no costs awarded. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
