1wp-1240-10 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION No.1240/2010 Sanjay Khandu Sanap & others .. .. Petitioners. v/s The State of Maharashtra & ors .. .. Respondents. Mr M.S.Karnik, Advocate for the Petitioners. Mr S.R. Nargolkar, A.G.P., for Respondent Nos.1 to 3. CORAM: D.K. DESHMUKH AND A.R.JOSHI,JJ DATED: 16TH FEBRUARY,2010 P.C.:- The modified proposal has been submitted pursuant to the objections raised by the villagers which were accepted by the Additional Collector. According to the petitioners, they were satisfied with the proposed division of wards. Therefore, they have not raised any objection. According to the petitioners, if the objections raised by the other villagers are accepted, again a proposal should have been published so that the petitioners get an opportunity to 2wp-1240-10 object it. In our opinion, directing to follow such procedure is contrary to the scheme of the Rules because the Rules contemplates publication of a provisional notification only once. If the petitioners were interested in seeing that village is divided into Wards as per law, they should remain present to find out what are the objections raised to the proposed divisions. So far as the factual aspect is concerned about divisions of the wards, in our opinion, that inquiry cannot be held in writ jurisdiction. Petition is rejected. (JUSTICE D.K.
