CWP No.9830 of 2016 [2] The petitioner is a resident of Sohna, District Gurgaon. He seeks a writ of mandamus to direct the respondent-authorities including the District Administration, Gurgaon and the State Election Commission, Haryana, to correct the voter lists of various wards of the Municipal Council, Sohna as large scale multiple voters figure in electoral rolls of different wards. Several other grounds have also taken to point-out that voters lists of various wards including ward Nos.15, 16, 17, 18, 19 & 21 need to be relooked. The petitioner has in this regard submitted a complaint dated 01.05.2016 (P-10) also.

Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner, it appears that the factual issues raised by the petitioner would require consideration and if the authorities find that correction measures need to be taken for validation of the voter lists, they may do so in accordance with law. In view of comprehensive averments made in the writ petition, respondent Nos.2 & 4 are directed to treat this writ petition as a supplementary representation on behalf of the petitioner and let it be disposed of in accordance with the principles of natural justice, within a period of four months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order.

Ordered accordingly.

Dasti.
