As per case facts, the appellant, a newly elected Sarpanch, was removed from office by the Deputy Commissioner after a complaint alleged she was underage, had a fake educational certificate, ... and multiple votes. Her appeal to the Divisional Commissioner and subsequent writ petition were dismissed. She appealed to the High Court, arguing her birth record was ignored, that administrative proceedings should have paused due to a pending election petition, and she lacked proper cross-examination. The question arose whether she met age and qualification criteria, was denied fair hearing, or if her election could only be challenged by an election petition under a specific statute. Finally, the High Court found the appellant failed to prove her age and qualifications and that sufficient opportunity was given in the quasi-judicial enquiry. It affirmed that both removal provisions and election petition provisions operate in different fields. The appeal was dismissed.
