10. I may note here that the respondent-1/Trust and the respondent No. 2-Institute in their counter affidavits have raised issues and questions about the conduct of Chairman, Mr. Hoshiar Singh Maan and the Secretary Dr. Balbir Singh. During the course of hearing, it was alleged that the letter dated 24th January, 2008 has been back dated and is a procured document. It was pointed out that Dr. Balbir Singh had filed a civil suit being Suit No. 2054/2007 against Mr. Charan Singh, Vice Chairman of the Trust and others from holding a meeting on 16th October, 2007 for considering the 'no confidence motion' against him and Mr. Hoshiar Singh Maan. By an interim order, the Court had permitted holding of the meeting but had directed that no further action pursuant to resolutions, if any, adopted shall be taken. The meeting was held and in the said meeting 'no confidence motion' was passed against the said Mr. Hoshiar Singh Mann and Mr. Balbir Singh. The Suit was ultimately dismissed by the Order dated 30th January, 2008 as not maintainable in view of Section 92 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. It may be noted that the arguments in the said case had concluded and the order for pronouncement was reserved on 22nd January, 2008. The purported letter dated 24th January, 2008 is between the date when the Court had heard arguments and reserved the Order and the date on which the Order was pronounced, i.e. 30th January, 2008. It is the case of the respondent Nos. 1 and 2 that during the course of hearing, the trend and the views expressed by the Court had become apparent. There appears to be merit in the contention raised by the respondent Nos. 1 and 2. However, I need not express final opinion on this aspect.
