BALASAHEB DADASAHEB PATILversus1. SHRI KONDIBA APPA NARUTE AND ORS.

Decided: 4 March 2026
Disposal: Disposed Off
Bench: AMIT BORKAR

Holding

The writ petition is infructuous and is disposed of.

Summary

The petitioner, Sayali Deepak, filed a writ petition (No. 7320 of 2012) before the High Court of Bombay challenging proceedings related to a no‑confidence motion that took place in 2012. The petition sought relief on the basis that the earlier proceedings were allegedly flawed. The Court observed that the matters raised in the writ petition had already been fully resolved in the earlier no‑confidence motion proceedings and that no substantive question remained for adjudication. Consequently, the Court held that the petition was infructuous. The petition was therefore disposed of without any costs being awarded.

Issues considered

What, if any, substantive question remains for adjudication in the writ petition arising from the 2012 no‑confidence motion?
