Mr. Abhay Sambre with Mr.Vivek Awchat, Advocates for the petitioner. CORAM : R.M.SAVANT, J. DATED : 18th July, 2011. 1. The above petition filed under Articles 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India takes exception to the order dated 30/6/2011 passed by the Collector, Amravati by which order the objections of the petitioner in respect of the ward formation within the area of Anjangaon (Suri) came to be rejected. 2. The petitioner raised objections in respect of the ward formation. In respect of the petitioner’s objections, the comments of the Chief Officer of the Municipal Council were called for and thereafter the Collector, Amravati has decided the matter. In so far as the comments of the Chief Officer are concerned, the Chief Officer has stated that in terms of the directions of the State Election Commission, the geographical situation of the village Anjangaon (Surji) is regarded to be taken into consideration, as a river passes through the middle of the said village and therefore with a view to have contiguous wards, the ward formation in 1807wp3354.11.odt 2 question was formulated. 3. The Collector considered the report of the Chief Officer of the Municipal Council and has accordingly reached a conclusion that the ward formation has been done with regard to the geographical situation on site, and more especially considering that a river is flowing through the middle of the said village. The Collector recorded a finding that the said formation of the ward is in terms of the mandate of the State Election Commission. In my view, the authorities have rejected the objections on the basis of the report of the Chief Officer of the Municipal Council and formation of ward appears to be in consonance with the direction of the State Election Commission which has been annexed to the petition. In that view of the matter, no case for interference is made out. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed. JUDGE chute
