--Petitioner Versus State of Uttarakhand & Others --Respondents
Hon’ble Manoj Kumar Tiwari, J.
None for the petitioner.
Mr. P.S. Bisht, Brief Holder, for the State.
Mr. Sanjay Bhatt, Advocate, for the respondent no. 3 and 4.
(2) Petitioner was desirous of contesting election for the O/o Chairman, Zila Panchayat, Dehradun, however the said office was reserved for women belonging to Scheduled Tribe community. Thus feeling aggrieved, petitioner filed this writ petition in 2019.
(3)
Learned Counsel for the respondents apprised the Court that the term of Chairman, who was elected in 2019, came to an end in 2024 and thereafter re-elections were held in August,
2025. Thus it is contended that after re- election for the O/o Chairman, Zila Panchayat, Dehradun, the relief as claimed in this writ petition do not survive.
(4) This Court finds substance in the submission made by learned Counsel for the respondents. Writ petition is, accordingly, dismissed as infructuous.
