1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH : NAGPUR WRIT PETITION NO. 4287 OF 2005 (Nilkanth s/o Nivrutti Varhade (Patil) vs. State of Maharashtra & Ors.) Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders Court's or Judge's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. CORAM : B.P. DHARMADHIKARI, J. JUNE 23, 2010. Heard Shri Deshpande, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mrs. Wasnik, learned AGP for respondents No. 1 & 2. Nobody appears for Respondents No. 3 & 4. The challenge in this writ petition filed under Article 226 of Constitution of India, is to the order dated 16.08.2005, rejecting nomination paper of the petitioner in Election for Gram Panchayat, Aadvihir, Tahsil – Motola, District – Buldhana. The election was then scheduled on 28.08.2005 and this Court had admitted the matter on 26.08.2005 but interim relief was refused. It is, therefore, apparent that the election as scheduled has taken place and hence the challenge in present writ petition was rendered infructuous thereafter. If the petitioner had taken any other steps for said election, without prejudice to those steps, present writ petition is disposed of as infructuous. No costs. JUDGE *GS.
