Responde THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR WRIT APPEAL No.686 of 2003 Judgment: (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice V.V.S.Rao) In the elections held to the Office of the Sarpanch the fourth respond along with the appellant contested the elections. Be it noted, the Office at relevant time was reserved for Scheduled Caste (Woman). The fo respondent was elected. However, the election petition, being O.P.No.7 2001, filed by the appellant was allowed setting aside the election of the fo respondent. The same was assailed in the writ petition. Learned single Ju by impugned order and judgment set aside the order of the Election Tribun Aggrieved by the same, the present appeal is filed. Counsel for the appellant submits that during the pendency of appeal, the fourth respondent completed her term as Sarpanch and noth survives in the writ appeal. In that view of the matter, we leave open the question whether the Court has jurisdiction to pass a declaratory decree in relation to community/caste of a person to be agitated in appropriate case. This is the o issue raised in the writ appeal, which does not require adjudication in view the fact that the writ appeal has become infructuous. The Writ Appeal is accordingly dismissed as infructuous. _____________ (V.V.S.RAO ________________ (K.G.SHANKAR 01.08.2011 vs
