ORAL JUDGMENT :
After hearing learned counsel for the parties,
it appears that in place of a school, which had been run
by respondent No.4 - Institution by name Shri Sadguru
Sanchaleshwar Vidyalaya, recognition of which had been
withdrawn, consequently, need of running a school at
Naikota appears to have arisen.
2. Petitioner claims that all the prerequisites
for starting school at Naikota had been complied with by
it and accordingly under communication dated 23 rd June,
2004, new secondary schools were allowed to be started
to 538 educational institutions wherein, according to
petitioner, its name had figured at serial No. 50.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner fairly
concedes to the position that said communication dated
23rd June, 2004 could not be placed on record at the time
of filing of the petition. He submits that it appears
that subsequently another proposal was submitted by
respondent No.4 for starting new school, which had been
granted. He further fairly refers to that the petitioner
had not pressed for grant of interim relief since
respondent No.4 had already started running school since
3 wp6405-2007
June, 2004. Learned counsel, during the course of
hearing, refers to some documents annexed, stating that
those were prerequisites while submitting petitioner's
proposal.
4. Smt. Raut, learned A.G.P. tenders across the
bar communication dated 23rd June, 2004 alongwith its
appendices, which shows that in all 538 educational
institutions were allowed to start secondary schools.
According to learned A.G.P., petitioner's name does not
figure in the list of institutions referred to in the
said communication.
5. Learned counsel for respondent No.4 states that
the present writ petition has been filed in 2007 for
grant of proposal which had been made in 2004 and since
then, respondent No.4 has been running the school
smoothly without breaches or hitches. There is no
substance in the writ petition.
6. Taking overall view of the matter, since
petitioner in support of its claim has not submitted any
material before this Court, particularly when
communication dated 23rd June, 2004 on which claim is
4 wp6405-2007
based does not support the same, we do not consider that
claim made by the petitioner is worth consideration.
Writ Petition, as such, is dismissed and disposed of.
Rule is accordingly discharged.
