A. Kothale, learned counsel for the petitioner. Mrs. Deshpande, learned Asstt. Govt.Pleader for R-1, 8 & 9. Shri A. S.Kilor, learned counsel for R-6. CORAM : SMT. VASANTI A. NAIK, J. DATE : MAY 2 , 2011 . Heard Shri V.A. Kothale, learned counsel for the petitioner, Mrs. Deshpande, learned Assistant Government Pleader for the respondent Nos.1, 8 and 9 and Shri A. S. Kilor, learned counsel for the respondent No.6. It appears on hearing the learned counsel for the parties that the Divisional Commissioner, Amravati Division, Amravati was justified in rejecting the application filed by the petitioner under Section 267[A] of The Maharashtra Zilla Parishad and Panchayat Samitis’ Act, 1961, as there was no question of setting aside the resolution passing the No Confidence Motion against the petitioner in public interest. Under Section 267[A] of the Act of 1961 an order or resolution could be set aside only when it was found that it was necessary to do so in public interest. 2 Since no public interest was involved in the instant matter, the Divisional Commissioner, Amravati Division, Amravati rightly dismissed the application filed by the petitioner under Section 267 [A] of the Act of 1961. The Commissioner observed that the No Confidence Motion was passed against the petitioner by 6:2 and the Commissioner could not have interfered with the resolution/order while exercising jurisdiction under Section 267[A] of the Act of 1961. Since there is no merit in the writ petition, the same is dismissed with no order as to costs. JUDGE KHUNTE
