Petitioner Vs Shri Krishna Babli Morajkar and ors .. Respondents Mr R.S.Thakur, for the petitioner. Mr Asif Patel for respondent no.1. CORAM : D.B.Bhosale,J. CORAM : D.B.Bhosale,J. CORAM : D.B.Bhosale,J. DATE : 21.02.08. DATE : 21.02.08. DATE : 21.02.08. PC: PC: PC: 1. Heard learned counsel for the parties. 2. By this writ petition, the petitioner has impugned an order dated 20.1.2007 passed by the Honourable Minister. The order impugned reads thus:- "1. Aggrieved by the order passed on 10th October 2006 by Konkan Division, Divisional Commissioner’s order no.DB/Off-3/GP/Exe.D/2006 Appellant has filed the said appeal on 9th November,2006. 2. Both parties being heard on 27th December,2006 as regard to appeal received filed by appellant Shri Krishna Babli Morajkar. Appellant was present at the time of hearing. On behalf of the respondent nos 1 to 3, Deputy Head Executive Officer, Jilla Parishad Sindhudurg, Panchayat Samitee, Dodamarg, Divisional Commissioner, Konkan Division was present. 3. In said matter both parties argument being heard. After looking into their respective representation and original documents it can be seen that, as per the writ petition no.1167/2006 Hon.High Court Mumbai disposed the writ by directing that grampanchayat should take decision in the meeting that office which was shifted 2 years before in new building that office should -2- be kept in new building. 4. After scrutinizing the points raised by both sides as well as documents following order is passed. Order I am in consonance with the decision of the Hon.High Court dated 27th February 2006 and it is suitable to have Grampanchayat office in good condition new building. Hence the order of the Commissioner, Konkan Division dated 10th October, 2006 is hereby cancelled." It appears that on earlier occasion, the then Sarpanch had filed the writ petition in this court bearing Writ Petition No.1167 of 2006 and that writ petition was disposed of by the Division Bench. The order dated 27.2.06 disposing of the said writ petition reads thus: " This is a frivolous petition unnecessarily drawn up at the instance of the petitioner on baseless averments that the office of the Gram Panchayat which was shifted two years ago on 6th March, is sought to be shifted again to the old building. The resolution proposed is very clear. The meeting of the Gram Panchayat is called to take decision as to whether Gram Panchayat office should be shifted to new building or be kept in old building. It can simply be resoled that it be kept in the new building where it has already shifted. No petition for such purpose was necessary. Hence, petition dismissed." From bare perusal of the orders quoted above, I am satisfied, this writ petition has no merit and it deserves to be dismissed in limine. Order accordingly. -3- (D.B.Bhosale,J.) (D.B.Bhosale,J.)
