1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF BOMBAY, BENCH AT AURANGABAD WRIT PETITION NO.6979 OF 2010 Bhimrao Madhav Kubade ..PETITIONER -VERSUS- The State of Maharashtra and another. ..RESPONDENTS ......... Mr.P.C. Mayure, advocate for petitioner. Mr.D.R. Korade, A.G.P. for respondent no.1. Mr.S.T. Shelke, advocate for respondent no.2. ........ (CORAM : V.R.KINGAONKAR,J.) DATE : 4 th August, 2010. PER COURT : 1. The election of village panchayat was scheduled on 8th August, 2010. The objections which are enumerated by the Returning Officer in the impugned order would show that the petitioner did not personally present the nomination form and did not present himself for attestation of his signature. It is also shown that though the nomination form was objected yet the petitioner did not personally attend to clarify the objection. Mr.Mayure would submit that the petitioner was present but was not called out by the Returning Officer. At this juncture, without substratum about any bias, it can not be said that the petitioner was purposefully not called out and the opportunity was not given to the petitioner. In view of the observations made in “Vinod Pandurang Bharsakade 2 V/s Returning Officer and another" {2003(4) Mh.L.J. 359}, the Petition is not maintainable. The petitioner is at liberty to agitate all the disputed questions of facts in an election petition, if so filed. No findings on merit are given in the order. (V.R.KINGAONKAR) JUDGE gas/wp6979.10
