ORDER
1.0 Heard
learned advocate Mr. Pahwa for M/s. Thakkar Associates for the
petitioner. The learned advocate for the petitioner vehemently tried
to convince this Court that the order passed by the Director of
Municipalities is bad on the ground that, though the subject matter
of the notice was pertaining to the transactions, which took place in
the earlier tenure of the petitioner as a Councilor and the
President, by the order impugned, the petitioner was removed as a
Councilor. The term of the petitioner as President had come to an
end on
4th September 2010.
2.0 The
fact that the transactions, which are the subject matter of the
notice, do involve a grave nature of irregularity/illegality. Hence,
this Court is of the opinion that decision of the authority of not
continuing the petitioner, even as a Councilor, is just and proper.
Hence, this Court has no reason to interfere with the order passed by
the Director of Municipalities. The petition is dismissed.
