HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition No. 432 of 2009 (M/S) Yashvir Singh …. Petitioner .. Versus State of Uttarakhand & others … Respondents Mr. A.V. Pundir, learned counsel for the petitioner. Mr. K.P. Upadhyay, learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel for the State of Uttarakhand. Mr. Parikshit Saini, learned counsel for the respondent nos. 5 and 6. 10th April, 2009 Hon’ble Sudhanshu Dhulia, J. This is a petition filed by the petitioner challenging the election of a Society. Admittedly, the election process is already on. Notification has been issued and the polling will take place on 12.4.2009. It is a settled position of law that once elections are notified, the Court should normally not interfere in the matter even though it relates to a Society. Therefore, this Court is not inclined to interfere in the matter. The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner, however, is that the election process has been initiated by a person who has got no authority to initiate such process. If this is so, the petitioner is at liberty to approach the Registrar, Firms Chits and Societies, Haridwar for redressal of his grievance, who shall pass an order on application of the petitioner as expeditiously as possible. With these observations, writ petition is disposed of. Let the certified copy of the order be issued today. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) 10.4.2009 Avneet 2 3 4 5
