IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS
V. LAKSHMINARAYANAN, J
T.Geetha – Appellant
Versus
Tamil Nadu State Co-operative Societies – Respondent
WP No. 21954 of 2018

The Court determined that a writ petition challenging an election becomes infructuous once the election period has expired.

Headnote:The writ petition was filed challenging the Co-operative election for N.C.1226, as the election period expired and the administration was taken over by the Government. The Court found that no further adjudication was necessary (Paragraph 1). The primary issue was whether the petition holds value after the election period expiration (Paragraph 2). Ultimately, the Court dismissed the petition as infructuous (Paragraph 3).
