IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc. No. M-34451 of 2010 Date of decision : 20.07.2011 Gurnam Singh ....Petitioner V/s State of Punjab and others ....Respondents BEFORE : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Ms. Harpreet Kaur, Advocate for Mr. Navkira Singh, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. K.D. Sachdeva, Additional Advocate General, Punjab. RAJAN GUPTA J. (ORAL) This is a petition filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking a direction to the respondents to register a criminal case against Sukhwant Singh @ Gurlal Singh and his wife Arvinder Kaur @ Sukhwinder Kaur for alleged violation of Representation of People Act. Learned State counsel at the outset submits that present petition has been rendered infructuous as the Deputy Commissioner-cum-District Election Officer, Amritsar had directed deletion of votes of Sukhwant Singh @ Gurlal Singh and Arvinder Kaur @ Sukhwinder Kaur and had also directed that a complaint be lodged before the Chief Judicial Magistrate under the Representation of People Act. He has referred to affidavit of K.S. Pannu, Deputy Commissioner-cum-District Election Officer, Amritsar dated 16.03.2011 in this regard. In view of above, it appears that no cause of action survives in this petition and no further orders are required to be passed. Disposed of. July 20, 2011 (RAJAN GUPTA) Ajay JUDGE
