The present civil applications have been argued at length and having heard learned Senior Advocates appearing for respective parties and after

perusing the record received from the office of the Charity Commissioner, Dahod with regard to the Trust in question, several resolutions passed by

the members of the Managing Committee of the Trust in question and considering the fact that election is scheduled on 09.02.2020, I do not find any

reason at this stage to modify the order. The members, who were inducted by Resolution dated 03.04.2013, are permitted to vote in the election which

is scheduled on 09.02.2020. The election shall be held in presence of responsible officer from the office of Assistant Charity Commissioner, Dahod

and result of the election shall be kept in a sealed cover and shall be produced by the Assistant Charity Commissioner, Dahod before this Court on the

next date of hearing.

Meanwhile, the President of the Trust in question, who had accepted the applications of members and who have been added as the members by the

Resolution dated 03.04.2013, shall file an affidavit in detail clarifying about his approval to the newly added members.

Stand over to 20.02.2020.

Copy of this order shall be supplied to the learned AGP for onward transmission to the office of Assistant Charity Commissioner, Dahod. Direct

service is permitted.
