CORAM:S. V. GANGAPURWALA & MANGESH S. PATIL, JJ.

DATE: 06th JANUARY, 2020 PER COURT:

1.

We have heard Mr. Temkar, learned counsel for the petitioner.

2.

The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the programme for conducting general elections of the Grampanchayat is declared in December 2019, still, now bye elections are being held for the two posts of members of the Grampanchayat, no fruitful purpose would be served. It would be waste of public money.

3.

More than six months remain for conduct of general elections. The respondents are within their right to hold the bye elections of the posts becoming vacant.

4.

In light of that, no interference is called for. Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs.
