The Writ Petition is filed to declare the election of Nallibilli Nookaraju as Sarpanch of Yetigairampeta village as illegal, invalid, null and void and consequently to declare the petitioner as the elected Sarpanch of Yetigairampeta village.

The petitioner opposed the nomination of the 4th respondent before the Election Officer in writing on the basis of G.O.Ms.No.190, dated 30-5-1995 as the 4th respondent has three children born before 30-5-1995. It is also stated that proof also had been submitted. Hence the 4th respondent is disqualified under Section 19(3) of A.P. Panchayat Raj Act. Several other factual details also had been narrated and aggrieved by the same the petitioner carried the matter to the Revenue Divisional Officer, District Collector, District Election Officer and also the Election Commissioner of the State producing all the material which would show the disqualification of the 4th respondent.
