Mr. A.M. Ghare, Advocate for petitioner, Ms. T.H. Udeshi, A.G.P. for respondent nos. 1 to 5. CORAM : B.R. GAVAI & V.M. DESHPANDE, JJ.

DATED : SEPTEMBER 1, 2016.

Leave to correct the prayer clause.

The Public Interest Litigation jurisdiction is normally to be exercised when a party who is aggrieved is not in a position to approach this Court. The petitioner has approached this Court with a grievance that the action of the State Government in postponing the elections of A Class societies only and not postponing the elections of the other types of societies is discriminatory and violative of Article 14 of the Constitution of India.

If any of the societies falling in Category B, Category C or Category D find that the action of the State Government is discriminatory and they are aggrieved by it, they can very well approach this Court seeking redressal of the grievance. In that view of the matter, we find that the present Public Interest Litigation is without substance and as such, is dismissed. Judge Judge J.
