Held, for assailing an appointment made to a public office, writ in the nature of quo warranto would lie only if the appointment to such office had been made in violation of the prescribed statutory conditions. A writ petition to assail the election of a person is not competent. The only remedy available to an individual who wishes to unseat an elected representative holding the office of a Member of Parliament is through an election petition under the provisions of Representation of the People Act, 1951.
