CORAM : R. C. CHAVAN, J. DATED : APRIL 28, 2010. P.C. : . This writ petition is directed against the rejection of nomination on the ground that the petitioner had been removed from the Managing Committee of the Society, and had thus incurred disqualifications in view of proviso to Clause (d) of Section 178 of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960. The election program was published on 5th April 2010 and a list of valid nominations published on 16-4-2010. The program shows that on 28th & 29th April 2010 i.e. today - 2 - and tomorrow the candidates will have an opportunity of withdrawing their nominations from the fray. Final list of candidates from fray is to be published on 30th April, 2010. Since the election program has made substantial progress, at this stage it will not be appropriate to intervene and set the clock back. The petitioner would have remedies to challenge the election for the grievance that his nomination was wrongly rejected. In view of this, writ petition is dismissed. Sd/- [R. C. CHAVAN, J.]
