JUDGMENT

The Writ Petition pertains to the smooth conduct of election to the Managing Committee of the Kallur Service Co-operative Bank Ltd. The Government Pleader on instructions submits that Ext.P5 circular regarding police protection for the election would be scrupulously followed. I have also no reason to believe that the identity cards of the voters would not be compared with that maintained in Form 6B register before the ballot papers are issued.

The Writ Petition is disposed of.
