C.R. No. 4148 of 2009 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.R. No. 4148 of 2009 Date of Decision: July 27, 2009 Paramjit Singh …..Petitioner Vs. Sucha Singh and others …..Respondents CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI. -.- Present:- Mr.J.S. Thind, Advocate for the petitioner. -.- M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) Petitioner seeks to be impleaded as a respondent in a suit filed by plaintiff- respondent No.1 for specific performance against defendant No.1-Gurchaan Singh and defendant No.2- Gram Panchayat, on the ground that the interests of the Gram Panchayat are not being looked into properly and that the civil suit is a device to grab the property of Gram Panchayat being well-wisher of the Gram Panchayat, it is claimed that he should have been permitted to be impleaded as party. C.R. No. 4148 of 2009 [2] I have heard counsel for the petitioner. The petitioner is a Panch of the Garm Panchayat and there has not been any resolution in his favour by the Gram Panchayat to protect the property of Gram Panchayat in his individual capacity. He does not seem to have any locus standi to be impleaded as a party in the case. In case the petitioner in the capacity as Panch earnestly desires to watch the interests of Gram Panchayat, it will be open for him to approach the higher statutory authorities who are responsible to look after the welfare and property of the Gram Panchayat. Dismissed. July 27, 2009 (M.M.S.BEDI) sanjay JUDGE
