However, in Writ Petition No. 9619/2010 though the validity of the rules has not been specifically challenged but the point in issue of this petition is interlinked with the controversy involved in Writ Petition No. 8337/2010 and, therefore, this Court vide order dated 17.8.2010 directed the petition to be listed along with Writ Petition No. 8337/2010. This is how all the three petitions were heard together and are being disposed of by this common order.
