HON'BLE SAUMITRA DAYAL SINGH, J.
HON'BLE SWARUPAMA CHATURVEDI, J.
1. Heard Sri S.P. Singh, learned counsel for the original
petitioner/appellant; Sri Gulrez Khan, learned counsel for the private
respondent no.6 and Sri Krishna Kumar Chand, learned counsel for
respondent no.2/Board.
2. Present intra-Court appeals have arisen against common order of the
learned single judge dated 08.04.2026 passed in Virendra Singh Vaire
Vs. State of U.P. & Ors.; 2026:AHC:76289. By that order, the learned
single judge has dismissed Writ - A No. 22502 of 2006 and disposed of
Writ - A No. 1339 of 2010, both filed by the present appellant.

Order on Special Appeal No. 559 of 2026
3. Earlier, the original petitioner had filed Writ - A No. 6890 of 2006 to
challenge the order dated 08.12.2005, appointing private respondent no.6
as Lecturer (English) at Maghanand Inter College, Sarai Ghasi,
Bulandshahr. However, that writ petition was dismissed as withdrawn by
the petitioner, vide order dated 06.02.2006.
4. Thereafter, the original petitioner filed Writ - A No. 22502 of 2006. In
that writ petition, after making disclosure of the fact that the earlier Writ -
A No. 6890 of 2006 had been dismissed as withdrawn, the petitioner
again set up challenge to the order dated 08.12.2005. Also, consequential
relief was sought.
5. At the same time, the original petitioner filed yet another Writ - A No.
1339 of 2010 for payment of arrears of salary etc.
6. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and having perused the
record, we find no error on principle in the order of the learned single
judge. The cause of action having arisen to the petitioner in the year 2005
upon issuance of appointment letter to the petitioner on the post of
Lecturer (English) at Maghanand Inter College, Sarai Ghasi, Bulandshahr
and that writ petition having been dismissed as withdrawn, at the instance
of the original petitioner/appellant, fresh cause of action did not
survive/arise as may have allowed the original petitioner to file the second
writ petition being Writ - A No. 22502 of 2006.
7. Also, we take note of the fact that the petitioner had been appointed on
the post of Lecturer (English) at the above described institution by way of
a stop-gap arrangement, till the joining of a regularly selected candidate.

There is no doubt that the respondent no.6 is a regularly selected
candidate. The challenge as to the placement at the institution in question
- for reason of reservation not available was an issue to be contested in the
first writ petition filed by the original petitioner being Writ - A No. 6890
of 2006. Upon dismissal of that writ petition, no fresh cause of action ever
arose, to raise that challenge.
8. Whether the issue of reservation is to be governed by the full bench
decision of this Court in Heera Lal Vs. State of U.P. & Ors.;
2010:AHC:170881-FB, is an academic issue in the facts noted above.
Once cause of action did not survive on withdrawal of the first writ
petition filed by the original petitioner - without leave to file second
petition, no interference may ever be offered on the second writ petition.
9. The present intra-Court appeal lacks merit and is accordingly
dismissed
Order on Special Appeal No. 560 of 2026
10. Insofar as the present appeal is concerned, an error on principle
appears to have crept in the order of the learned single judge to the extent,
that writ petition has been dismissed in entirety. It being undisputed
