1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH : NAGPUR WRIT PETITION NO. 4444 OF 2008 (Dr. Dhananjay Prataprao Rajurkar vs. Additional Commissioner, Amravati Division & Ors.) Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders Court's or Judge's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. CORAM : B.P. DHARMADHIKARI, J. OCTOBER 14, 2008. Heard finally with the consent of Shri Gawande, learned counsel for the petitioner, AGP for respondents No. 1 to 3 and Shri Kurekar, learned counsel for respondents No. 5 to 10. Shri Gawande, learned counsel states that proceedings have not been correctly recorded and it is not apparent which way six voters have put their vote. He further points out consideration of issue by the Additional Collector in the appeal. According to him, the request before both the authorities to re- conduct the meeting, ought to have been granted. Upon specific question put by this Court, Shri Gawande, learned counsel has accepted that on the basis of same motion and notice, no confidence meeting should be conducted on suitable date. Shri Kurekar, learned counsel argues that though the proceedings are recorded in the words which are not very clear, because it is expressly 2 mentioned that two members have voted against no confidence, it appears that six have supported the motion of no confidence. However, upon the perusal of said para and particularly the use of Marathi word “Mate”, it is not clear whether six members have cast their vote or they have only expressed their views/ opinions. As the matter pertains to no confidence motion, I am inclined to grant request made by Shri Gawande. Accordingly, meeting of no confidence and proceedings recorded therein on 12.5.2008 are hereby quashed and set aside. Consequently, the order of Additional Collector, Washim, dated 14.8.2008 and of Additional Commissioner, Amravati Division, Amravati, dated 26.09.2008 are hereby quashed and set aside. Respondent No.3 – Tahsildar, Washim. to issue appropriate notice about the date of meeting and to conduct the meeting in the light of motion of no confidence, in accordance with law, as early as possible. Writ Petition is disposed of. Rule accordingly. No order as to costs. JUDGE *GS.
