2. 08.03.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner

and the State.

The petitioner seeks mandamus for

inclusion of her name in the voter list for the

Panchayat Elections 2011.

It is submitted that her name did figure

in the electoral roll in the year 2009 but finds no

place in the electoral roll of 2010. That she has

represented before the District Magistrate on

24.12.2010.

Let the District Magistrate-cum-Electoral

Registration Officer consider the grievances of the

petitioner and dispose it off expeditiously so that she

is not deprived of her right to contest election for the

post of Mukhiya and her grievances rendered

infructuous by inaction of the District Magistrate.

The writ application stands disposed.
