It is required to be noted that the appointment of respondent No.1 was made in the year 1991 and normally, the term of the Directors is between three to five years and, therefore, by afflux of time, the present Special Civil Application has become infructuous as in between at least two to three fresh elections must have been conducted. Hence, without entering into the merits of the case, the present petition is disposed of as having become infructuous. Rule is discharged. Interim relief, if any, granted earlier shall stand vacated. No costs. [M. R. Shah, J.] kamlesh*
