2 WP 2270 of 2004
ORAL JUDGMENT (T.V. NALAWADE, J.):
1) The petition is filed for giving direction to the
respondent-Government to make payment of grant-in-aid
to the employees in respect of salary of the employees and
other things for the period 23-11-2000 to 2-4-2002 which
include arrears of salary, increments, non salary grants
etc. both the sides are heard.
2) The petitioner started residential school for
boys and girls in village Karanji, Tahsil Pathardi in the
year 1985 and application was moved for registration and
recognition. It is contended that the recognition was
granted in the year 1990 and grant also was given with
effect from 6-6-1991. It is contended that in the year 2000
sanction and recognition were renewed for the academic
year 2000-2001 after inspection. It is contended that after
that without giving hearing to the petitioner order dated
23-11-2000 came to be passed and both registration and
recognition of the petitioner school came to be cancelled
with effect from October 2000. It is contended that due to
such order, the payments of salary grant and other grant
3 WP 2270 of 2004
came to be stopped. It is contended that this order was
challenged by filing proceeding before the Secretary of
the Department of the State Government but the appeal
was rejected by the Minister. It is contended that writ
petition was filed in this Court bearing No.802/2002 and
by allowing the writ petition this Court directed present
respondent No.2, the Commissioner to renew the
registration in favour of the petitioner and the aforesaid
orders made by the respondents were set aside. It is
contended that after the decision of the writ petition, the
petitioner approached the Director of Social Welfare for
renewal of the recognition and also for grant-in-aid for
the period during which there was no registration and
recognition. It is contended that in spite of making several
representations these grants are not released and so the
petitioner was required to file the present proceeding.
3) The learned Assistant Government Pleader
drew attention of this Court to the Special School Code
prepared for schools for handicapped children and also
Government Resolution dated 27-1-2004. In this record as
per the policy adopted by the Government it is made clear
4 WP 2270 of 2004
that if for institutions like the petitioner there was no
recognition or registration for particular period and after
that they got the recognition and registration, then the
institution will be entitled to get grant-in-aid only in
respect of the period for which there was registration and
recognition. For the remaining period, if there was no
recognition and registration, the grants are not to be
given. This record shows that protection is given to the
service of the employees though the grant-in-aid is not to
be given in respect of this period. This Court has seen the
order made in the writ petition by this Court and it also
does not show that the direction was given by this Court
to see that in respect of the period for which there was no
recognition and registration grant-in-aid is given. In view
of these circumstances this Court holds that no relief can
be granted in the matter. The petition stands dismissed.
Rule stands discharged.
