H.L.GOKHALE,J - (1.) :- 1. Heard Mr. Sachindra Mohan in support of this appeal. Mr. K.P.S. Yadav appears for the respondents.
(2.) THE appeal seeks to challenge the judgment and order dated 2nd March, 2005 passed by the learned Single Judge whereby the petition filed by the appellants herein was dismissed. The case of the appellants was that an erroneous order was passed on 3rd June, 2002 by the Assistant Registrar, Firms, Societies and Chits Funds, U.P. Varanasi, by which 36 members, who were not the valid members of the Society, were permitted to vote in the election of the Society. A petition was, accordingly, filed to quash and set aside the aforesaid order dated 3rd June, 2002. The respondents were 26 out of these 36 members. The learned Judge, however, dismissed the petition solely on the ground that under that order, the election to the Society had already been notified and, therefore, the Court should not interfere in the election process.
(3.) MR . Sachindra Mohan, learned counsel for the appellants submitted that the learned Judge ignored the fact that the very 36 persons of the Society were already disqualified by the Prescribed Authority by its order dated 29th August, 1996 passed under Section 25 of the Societies Registration Act and that order had remained undisturbed, though earlier a Writ Petition No.33702 of 1996 was filed to challenge the same. That petition had been dismissed as infructuous, and that according to him the disqualification under the order dated 29th August, 1996 continued.;
