By passage of time, I am of the opinion that this petition has virtually become infructuous. The dispute pertains to the question of the leader of the opposition in the Panchayat of the year 1987. Even if at the point of time the resolution passed by the District Panchayat Annexure-B is taken to be not correct it is always open to the District Panchayat to pass appropriate resolution in later point of time. So far as the Annexures C and D are concerned those are also of no effect as the term of President of the District Panchayat would have come to an end long back. In the result, the Special Civil Application is dismissed subject to the aforesaid observation as having become infructuous. Rule is discharged. Interim relief, if any, granted by this court stands vacated. No order as to costs. (S.K.Keshote, J.) *Pvv
