The petitioners have approached this Court seeking issuance of writ in the nature of Mandamus, directing respondent Nos.2 to 4 to include their names in the eligible voters' list and permit them to cast their votes in the election that was scheduled to be held on 28.09.2025 for respondent No.3 - Society. - 21 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:52589 WP No. 29330 of 2025 3. As per the interim order dated 24.09.2025, the petitioners were permitted to cast their votes, directing respondent No.4 to keep the same in a separate box and proceed to declare the election results, without counting the votes cast by the petitioners. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioners and learned Additional Government Advocate submit in unison that, pursuant to the order dated 24.09.2025, the petitioners have cast their votes and the same were kept in a separate box. The result of the election is already declared. In view of the fact that the petitioners are having statutory remedy to raise the dispute under Section 70 of the KCS Act, I do not find any reason to keep the petition pending. 5.
