A counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of the State respondents. The fact that the petitioner was being prevented or was not being allowed to join by respondent No. 7, Sarpanch, has been admitted in the counter affidavit. Specific stand has been taken that respondent No. 7 has appointed another person in place of the petitioner though he was not competent to do so. The authorities have stated that action was going to be taken against respondent No. 7 under Section 97(5) for removing the Sarpanch. Stand has been placed by way of counter affidavit filed in the year 2017. None appears for the petitioner.

Even State Counsel is not aware as to what has transpired thereafter.

In the circumstances the writ petition is dismissed for want of prosecution.
