1. Case of the petitioners, in brief, is as follows:
Petitioners were elected as the President and Vice President in the Wandoor Grama Panchayat in the year 2005. There are altogether twenty two Members, eleven belonging to the United Democratic Front, while eleven belonged to the Left Democratic Front. Respondents 2 and 3 issued notice to first respondent to convene a meeting under S.157 of the Kerala Panchayat Raj Act to discuss a No Confidence Motion against both the petitioners. Ext. P1 is produced as the Notice issued by the first respondent. Petitioners have raised three contentions. In the first place, they would contend that the Notice constitutes a contravention of S.157 of the Kerala Panchayat Raj Act.
