IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.6554 of 2010 Date of decision: 11th November, 2010 Dharam Pal and others … Petitioners Versus State of Haryana and others … Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA Present: Mr. U.K. Agnihotri, Advocate for the petitioners. Ms. Kirti Singh, Deputy Advocate General, Haryana for respondents No.1, 2 and 4. Mr. Rajbir Sehrawat, Advocate for respondent No.3. Mr. Pardeep Solath, Advocate for respondent No.5. KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA, J. (ORAL) Admittedly, remedy of instituting an election petition is available to the petitioners under Section 10(2) of the Haryana Cooperative Societies Act, 1984. Once an alternative efficacious remedy is available, the writ Court will not come to the rescue of the petitioners. However, the petitioners, if so advised, may file an election petition. Counsel for the petitioners, at this stage, submits that he will withdraw the present petition, and in case he files an election petition within a period of three weeks from today, no objection qua the limitation be raised, as he has approached the wrong forum under the wrong notion of law. Counsel for the respondents have no objection thereto. Accordingly, as prayed, present petition is dismissed as withdrawn. In case the petitioners institute an election petition within a Civil Writ Petition No.6554 of 2010 period of three weeks from today, no objection qua the limitation shall be raised. [KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA] JUDGE November 11, 2010 rps 2
