P.C. : Since the election process has already been commenced, the cause of action for this petition does not survive. Petition is accordingly liable to be dismissed. In the result, petition is dismissed for want of cause of action. 2. However, during the course of hearing, it has 2 wp-7644.10 come to our notice that by order dated 21st January, 2010 the Charity Commissioner was directed to appoint a person from his office or any Advocate to supervise the meeting which was to be held in the month of April, 2010. The Charity Commissioner appears to have failed to implement this order almost for a period of three months. The Charity Commissioner is directed to show cause as to why delay was caused in appointing any fit person pursuant to the order dated 21st January, 2010 and why he did not see that the order of this Court is implemented with expeditious despatch. In spite of lapse of one year, the elections have not taken place. The lethargy on the part of the Charity Commissioner is writ large and need to be viewed seriously. However, appropriate view would only be taken after the reply of the Charity Commissioner. 3. We hope that the elections would be conducted expeditiously. Learned A.G.P. undertakes to communicate this order to the Charity Commissioner. (R.G.KETKAR, J.) (V.C.DAGA, J.)
