Ramesh Kumar Sharma and others .....Petitioners versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Amit Aggarwal, Advocate, for the petitioners. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) Vide orders dated 21.7.2010 (Annexure P3), the Deputy Commissioner, Bathinda was directed to hold the election of the Managing Committee of S.D. High Court, Maur Mandi, District Bathinda. He was authorised to delegate his authority as an Observer to the Sub Divisional Magistrate also. Pursuant thereto, the Sub Divisional Magistrate issued a public notice dated 10.1.2011 (Annexure P-25) publishing the list of eligible voters and giving two weeks time to the aggrieved parties to agitate the matter before “an appropriate forum”. Thereafter, he has issued another circular dated 20.1.2011 (Annexure P-26) notifying that since no objection has been received from any quarter, he would proceed to hold the election on 26.1.2011 at 2.30 p.m. C.W.P.No .1357 of 2011 2 It is urged on behalf of the petitioners that they have submitted their “objections” against the voter list notified by the Sub Divisional Magistrate but without considering the same, that the election is being held. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioners, I do not find any ground to stay/postpone the election. The writ petition is, however, disposed of with a direction to the Sub Divisional Magistrate, Talwandi Sabo, District Bathinda, to consider the objections, if any, received from the petitioners before the election is held on 26.1.2011 at 2.30 p.m. Let a copy of this order duly attested by the Bench Secretary be handed-over to learned counsel for the petitioners on payment of usual dasti charges.
