It is submitted by Mr. Das, learned counsel for the petitioner and endorsed by Ms. Baruah, learned CGC that during the pendency of the writ petition, the Aadhaar Card has been issued to the petitioner's son, Sri Ayush Sabat and as such, the writ petition can be closed as the cause of action on which the writ petition was preferred, has not survived. As an Aadhaar Card has already been issued in the name of the petitioner's son, Sri Ayush Sabat, this writ petition stands closed.
