Nagarathna, J) disposing of Writ Petition (C) NO.59/2013 along with the connected writ petition on 13.01.2023. It is noted that, in the said writ petition(s), there was an amended writ petition filed, pursuant to an application seeking amendment, namely, I.A. No.3A of 2013, being allowed on 02.08.2013 and the petitioners being granted leave to file the amended writ petition vide paragraphs 4(a) to 4(y) of I.A.No.3A of 2013. Consequently, the amendments were made in the Writ Petition. Unfortunately, learned senior counsel appearing for the writ petitioners and other counsel appearing for the respective parties in the said matter did not bring to the notice of this Court the aforesaid substantial amendments made to the original writ petition(s). It was, infact, their duty to bring to the notice of this Court the said amendments, which were twenty five in number.
