214wp1913.11.odt 1 . IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR Writ Petition No.1913 of 2011 (Shri Gajendra S. Madghe and anr. vs. The Secretary, Co-op. Deptt., Mumbai and Ors.) Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. Court's or Judge's orders Coram: D. D. Sinha and A. P. Bhangale, JJ. Date : 21/04/2011. Heard Mr.D.A.Sonwane, Adv. for the petitioners and Mr.N.W.Sambre, Government Pleader for respondent nos. 1 to 4. In the instant petition, the grievance of the petitioners is that the elections of the Society in question were declared and name of petitioner no.2 was shown in the provisional voters list; however, same was not mentioned in the final voters list. It is submitted that the persons those who have committed default in re-payment of crop loan i.e. respondent nos. 6 to 10, their names are shown in the final voters list; whereas the name of said petitioner, who is also defaulter, her name has not been included in the final voters list. It is not in dispute that the petitioner 214wp1913.11.odt 2 . otherwise is not eligible to be shown in the final voters list. Merely because the names of respondents who were defaulters are included in the final voters list, that cannot be the ground for the petitioner to ask for inclusion of his name in the final voters list since he is also a defaulter. Article 14 of the Constitution of India cannot be pressed into action from the backdoor and therefore, the petition suffers from lack of merits. However, it is open for the Authorities to take appropriate steps in respect of the persons whose names are included in the final voters list but are not eligible. With these observations, the petition is disposed of. JUDGE JUDGE jais
