CORAM: S.C.DHARMADHIKARI & RAVINDRA V.GHUGE,JJ. DATED: 3rd FEBRUARY, 2014.
PER COURT:
1.The election programme has already been
notified. The elections are going to be held
on 4th February, 2014 at 02.00 p.m.
2.In the event any of the actions of the
authorities or the results of the election are
adverse to the petitioner then the petitioner
has a remedy available in law to question the
same. Writ petition, under Article 226 of the
Constitution certainly is not the remedy to
resolve these election issues.
3.In such circumstances, leaving open all
