RESPONDENTS CORAM :- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE JASWANT SINGH Present: Mr. R.L. Batta, Senior Advocate, with Mr. J.S. Tyagi, Advocate, for the petitioners. Mr. Sudhir Makkar, Senior DAG, Haryana, for respondents No.1 and 2. Mr. Dheeraj Jain, Advocate, for respondent No.3. * * * SATISH KUMAR MITTAL , J. ( Oral ) This petition was filed in the year 1989 by the members of the Madanpura Cooperative House Building Society Limited, Madanpura, District Ambala (respondent No.3 society herein) for issuing direction to respondent No.5 not to hold election to the respondent No.3 society in view of the order dated 29.9.1989, passed by the Assistant Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Haryana, which was also challenged in this petition. An affidavit of Shri Mohan Lal, present of respondent No.3 society is available on the record, wherein it has been stated that since the CWP No. 13425 of 1989 -2- election of the respondent No.3 society has already taken place, therefore, this writ petition has become infructuous. However, this case was adjourned on 5.2.1990 with a direction to counsel for the respondents to produce the enquiry report submitted by the Assistant Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Ambala City. Thereafter, the case has been listed for today. Learned counsel for the petitioners states that for long time, the petitioners have not approached him. It appears that during the pendency of this petition, it has become infructuous. In view of the above, this petition is dismissed as infructuous. However, if any cause of action still survives, it will be open for the petitioners to revive this petition. ( SATISH KUMAR MITTAL ) JUDGE November 27, 2008 ( JASWANT SINGH ) ndj JUDGE
