2. It is seen from the records that there had been subsequent elections and elected members are administering the association. Hence, nothing survives in this suit as the relief sought for has become infructuous. Accordingly, the Civil Suit is dismissed as infructuous. No costs. Consequently, connected original applications are closed.
