The Court made the following Oral Judgment: (per Sri Devinder Gupta, CJ) Appellant is not a party either to the writ petition or to the proceedings taken out by the writ petitioner-1st respondent herein, before the authorities concerned. Show cause notice dated 18.1.2004, issued against the writ petitioner, Sarpanch of Katrenikona Gram Panchayat, Katrenikona Village and Mandal was challenged in the writ petition impugned in this appeal and ultimately the said writ petition was allowed by a learned single judge of this Court reserving liberty to the 2nd respondent to take appropriate action on the alleged financial irregularities by issuing a fresh show cause notice. Learned counsel for the respondents 2 to 4 states that fresh show cause notice has already been issued to the writ petitioner and he has sought time to inspect the record. In that view of the matter, we do not find any ground to interfere with the order of learned single judge holding that the earlier show cause notice dated 18.1.2004 was bad and in reserving liberty to the respondent-authorities to take appropriate action on the alleged financial irregularities committed by the writ petitioner in accordance with law. The writ appeal is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ____________________ DEVINDER GUPTA, CJ Date: 30th November, 2004 _________________ G. ROHINI, J Pnb To 1 Sri M.M. Anand Sagar, S/o. M.s.
