JUDGMENT The disputes in this writ petition relate to an election scheduled on 23-12-2007. The question as to whether the voters' list has been properly maintained cannot be opened up at this point of time. It will also be not in the interest of the institution to interfere with the election proceedings, as of now. Hence, without prejudice to the contentions in appropriate forum, this writ petition is closed. However, this judgment will not stand in the way of the Joint Registrar considering Ext.P4 in accordance with law. THOTTATHIL B. RADHAKRISHNAN, JUDGE. Sha/
