The counsel for the respondents state that this special civil application has become infructuous. 2. The counsel for the petitioner prays for short adjournment to ascertain whether this petition now survives or not. 3. I do not find any ground to adjourn this matter. Having heard the learned counsel for the respondents and going through the contents of the special civil application and the order impugned therein, I find that by passing of time, this petition has become infructuous. This matter pertains to the action taken against the petitioner, a Sarpanch, for his removal from the office. Election had been held in the year 1991 and the period of five years of Panchayat would have expired long back. Even the period for which the petitioner would have incurred disqualification for contesting the election also would have come to an end. 4. The special civil application is dismissed. Rule discharged. Interim relief, if any, granted stands vacated. No order as to costs. Liberty is granted to the petitioner for revival of this special civil application in case of difficulty. ********** zgs/-
