DATE : MAY 5 , 2011 . Heard Shri S. K. Tambde, the learned counsel for the petitioner, Shri Patel, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for the respondent Nos.1 and 4 and Shri N. V. Tapas, the learned counsel for the respondent No.3. Though, it is the case of the petitioner that the Election Officer did not have any authority to publish a fresh election programme and the first programme published on 12/04/2011 should be continued and implemented, it is necessary to note that the final voters’ list is published on 24/04/2011, in pursuance of the previous election programme and the date of distribution of nomination papers i.e. 27/04/2011 and date of publishing of list of the nomination papers so accepted i.e. 02/05/2011, has already expired. The first election programme published on 2 12/04/2011 cannot be implemented in any case. The cause for filing this writ petition has been rendered infructuous. Hence, the writ petition stands disposed of with no order as to costs. The issue involved in this writ petition is, however, kept open. JUDGE KHUNTE
