The petitioner and respondent no. 1 both contested the election of councillor from ward No. 19. The petitioner was declared elected. The election of the petitioner was challenged by the respondent no. 1 by filing election petition which was allowed by the Election Tribunal. Being aggrieved by the said order, the petitioner filed a writ petition bearing no. 2195 of 2009 which was allowed 2 by this Court. Against the said Order, the respondent no. 1 filed a SLP before the Apex Court, which is pending. The Apex Court passed an interim order on 24th April 2009 and granted status quo. 3. In view of the Order passed by the Apex Court directing parties to maintain status quo, it is difficult for us to show any indulgence in the matter till such time the order of status quo either is altered, modified or revoked by the Apex Court. It is open for the petitioner to seek appropriate clarification in this regard from the Apex Court. 4. For the reasons stated herein above, the petition is dismissed. (D. D. SINHA, J.) (MRS.
