Appeal District : Application No. of 200 Writ petition Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders or directions Court's or Judge's orders and Registrar's orders. CORAM :D.D. SINHA & SMT. VASANTI A. NAIK, JJ. DATED : FEBRUARY 16, 2008. Heard Mr. Vaidya for the petitioner, Mr. Sonak, the learned A.G.P., for respondent no.1, and Mr. Raut for the respondent no.2. The counsel for the petitioner states that the petitioner is prosecuting a public cause and, therefore, seeking direction to the respondents to remove the transformer and electric pole which obstruct the beautification work as well as the landscaping work near the statue of Krantiveer Bhagatsingh. At the outset, we would like to express that this cannot, in fact, be treated as a public interest litigation 2 in the real sense of the term. However, after issuance of notice, the respondent no.2- Municipal Council has filed an affidavit wherein it is stated that due to lack of funds, the work of shifting of transformer and beautification of statue is difficult at this stage to undertake. However, it is mentioned that the respondent no. 2 is pursuing the appropriate authority to release the necessary funds and as and when such funds are made available, immediate steps would be taken in this regard. In the backdrop of the above referred facts, there is no purpose in keeping the present petition pending. Same is disposed of. JUDGE JUDGE RMP
