Mr. Bipin Joshi with Mr. P. B. Joshi for the Petitioner

P. C.

1.

In terms of the office report and earlier orders, it is evident that a notice has been

issued to the respondents. The report indicates that the notices issued to respondent Nos. 2,

10 and 11 were returned with some remarks. However, respondent No. 11 is represented by

Ms. Palsuledesai-learned AGP. He is the returning officer. As far as respondent Nos. 2 and 10

are concerned, what I find is that the notice was also published in the Government Gazette

dated 7th February, 2009. No application has been received seeking to substitute any applicant

in place of the present petitioner.

2.

Evidently, the present petitioner is desirous of withdrawing the petition. Once the

rules and the procedural requirements are complied with, the election petition is disposed of

as withdrawn. However, the costs of respondents Nos. 11 and 12, who have been appearing

throughout, should be paid. The costs payable to respondent Nos. 11 and 12 are quantified at

Rs. 5,000 each. The costs be paid within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a

copy of this order.

3.

In terms of sections 109 and 110 of the Representation of Peoples Act, 1951, the required

procedure having been completed, this election petition is disposed of.
