The petition pertains to legality of nomination of the Respondent Nos.6 and 7 as Municipal Councillors. The term of the "Municipal Council" is over long back. Even if we allow the petition, we will not be in a position to grant relief in favour of the petitioner. As such the question that would be decided is only of academic interest. 2. Due to huge pendency of matters, we are not inclined to decide purely academic question. In that view of the matter, petition is disposed of as infructuous. Rule discharged. (S.V.GANGAPURWALA,J.)
