Amle, counsel for the petitioner. CORAM : SMT. VASANTI A. NAIK, J. DATE : JANUARY 21 , 2011 . Heard. By this petition, the petitioner impugns the order passed by the Assistant Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Mehkar, dismissing an appeal filed by the petitioner under Section 152(A) of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960 and upholding the order of the Election Officer rejecting the nomination petitioner to contest the election of the Gram Sewa Sahakari Sanstha. It is necessary to note that the elections are scheduled on 23.01.2011 and the petitioner has approached this Court, today. The impugned order is dated 31.12.2010. The reasons for not approaching this Court within a reasonable time after 31.12.2010 when the elections were scheduled on 23.01.2011 have not been stated by the petitioner in this petition. In the aforesaid set of facts, it would not be possible for this Court to hear the respondents before granting any interim relief to the petitioner as the elections are scheduled on 23.01.2011. In such circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of with a liberty to the petitioner to avail the remedy of an election petition in case, he desires to do so. 2 The writ petition is disposed of with no order as to costs.
