A requisition was made for calling a special meeting to consider vote of no confidence motion against him. The petitioner, having not fixed the date rather rejected the requisition, respondent No 5, Executive Officer fixed the date. On the date so fixed, the special meeting was held and as the meeting was for removal of both the Pramukh and Up Pramukh, it was presided by another person. The total elected members of the House being 16, the petitioner was defeated by 10:5, one being the Chairman. Petitioner participated in the meeting and lost the confidence of the House. Subsequently, 2 vacancy being there, the election programme was announced and elections held. New Pramukh and Up Pramukh were elected and have been working since more than a year. Petitioner has failed to challenge the said election or even bring that fact on record. In view of the fact that the petitioner participated in the special meeting and lost the majority of the house and in view of the fact that the petitioner has not challenged the election held consequent to her removal, I am not inclined to entertain this application. It is dismissed accordingly. M.E.H./ (Navaniti Prasad Singh)
