Respondents Mr. Rahul P. Walvekar for petitioner. Mr. Vijay Patil, GP for respondent nos.1 and 2. Mr. S. S. Patwardhan for respondent no.3. CORAM: B. H. MARLAPALLE & U. D. SALVI, JJ. DECEMBER 22, 2010. P.C. 1. The petitioner was elected as a Corporator of respondent no.3- Corporation. He came to be elected as such on 1/11/2010 as a candidate of Shiv Sena from Ward No. 53. Whereas respondent no.4 was elected as an independent candidate from Ward No. 69. Respondent No.5 was also elected as a Corporator in the very same elections. After the elections, 2 wp-9874-10 seven independent Corporators formed their Aghadi on 2/11/2010. The petitioner seeks to challenge the order dated 4/12/2010 passed by the respondent no.2, holding that six Corporators have formed a new Aghadi by name “Chatrapati Shahu Aghadi” and respondent nos.4 and 5 are the members of the said Aghadi. This newly formed Aghadi consists of one Corporator from the Jansurajya party and five independents, and while challenging the said order, he seeks a declaration that respondent nos. 4 and 5 have incurred disqualification and thus given up the elected seat of Corporator. 2. The respondent nos.4 and 5 have not challenged the order dated 4/12/2010 and we are satisfied that the petitioner is not even the elected leader of any Aghadi. He has no locus standi to challenge the order dated 4/12/2010 and the aggrieved party is not before us. 3. Hence, the petition is rejected summarily. (U.D. SALVI, J.) (B. H. MARLAPALLE, J.)
