Shri Mujumdar, learned AGP, appearing for respondents No. 1 to 3, however, states that the direction as sought for in clause 4 of minutes of order to hold elections for the post of Sarpanch within four weeks should be modified and the Tahsildar, Akot, should be permitted to hold elections in accordance with law, at the earliest possible opportunity. The learned counsel for the petitioner and Respondent No. 4 have no objection. 2 The learned AGP has also urged that as incorrect information was given to lower authorities and false affidavits were filed before those authorities as also before this Court, the right of respondents No. 1 to 3 to take appropriate action against Respondent No. 4 in the matter should be preserved. Respondents No. 1 to 3 or Tahsildar, Akot, are not parties to minutes of order. Hence, all rights available to them in the matter are kept intact and are not eclipsed by said minutes. The Tahsildar, Akot, to hold elections to fill in vacancies in the post of Sarpanch at the earliest. Subject to this, the minutes of order are taken on record and writ petition is disposed of in terms thereof. Rule accordingly. No order as to costs. JUDGE *GS.
