Jayanta Kumar Biswas, J. - (1.) THE appellant in the AST filed on September 19, 2014 is aggrieved by a single Judge order dated September 15, 2014 in its WP No. 24412(W) of 2014 refusing interim relief and vacating an interim order dated September 9, 2014.
(2.) THE single Judge order dated September 9, 2014 is quoted below: - "To enable Counsel for the State respondents to take instruction in the matter, matter to appear in the list on 15th September, 2014.

Accordingly, let no step be taken till 16th September, 2014. Certified copy of this order, if applied for, be given to the parties as early as possible." The single Judge order dated September 15, 2014 is quoted below: - "A representation has been filed by the petitioner on 21st July, 2014 and a dispute raised. No receipt of such representation has been annexed to the writ petition and all that is contended by Counsel for the petitioner that by facsimile the said representation has been despatched. Such evidence is not borne out by the representation annexed. Though the work order was issued on 31st July, 2014 whereas e -auction was initiated on 21st July, 2014. Offers were to be made by 25th July, 2014. As the work order has already been issued and the writ petition filed only in August, 2014, this application for the present does not merit an interim order. Directions are given for filing affidavits. Affidavit in opposition be filed within one week after long vacation; reply, if any, be filed a week thereafter. Matter to appear in the list three weeks after long vacation. Decision taken by the respondent authorities will abide by the result of this writ petition.
