DATE : 19th JANUARY, 2021

PER COURT:-

1. The caste claim of the petitioner as belonging to "Mannervarlu"

Scheduled Tribe is invalidated.

2. Mr. Golegaonkar, learned counsel for the petitioner submits

that eleven members in the family of the petitioner are issued with

the validity certificate of "Mannervarlu" Scheduled Tribe. The real

brother of the petitioner is issued with the validity certificate. The real

uncle of the petitioner namely Bhawan is also issued with the validity

certificate of "Mannervarlu" Scheduled Tribe. The other family

relatives are also issued with the validity certificate. The vigilance was

conducted in case of Tushar. The entry of the father of the petitioner

was the subject matter for consideration. The vigilance did not

observe any interpolation in the said entries. The learned counsel

relies upon the judgment of the Division Bench of this Court in case of

Apoorva D/o Vinay Nichale Vs. Divisional Caste Certificate Scrutiny

Committee No.1 and others reported in 2010 (6) MH.L.J. 401 and

submits that validity certificate issued to the near relatives is relevant

fact.

3. Mr. Patil, learned Addl. G.P. submits that there are contra entries

on record. The contra entries of paternal cousin of the petitioner have

come on record. All those contra entries are the subject matter for

consideration in earlier validation proceedings, which were granted to

the paternal relatives of the petitioner. One family member namely

Rajesh had applied for validation of his caste claim, the same is

invalidated in the year 1999. He suppressed the said invalidation and

fraudulently obtained the validity certificate in the year 2009. The said

aspect is also needs to be considered. The petitioner failed in the

affinity test.

4. We have considered the submissions.

6. In some of the matters the vigilance appears to have been

conducted before granting the validity. The show cause notices are

issued to the validity holders related to the petitioner. The old record

of the petitioner's father was subject matter of consideration when the

validity was issued to the real brother of the petitioner Tushar. The

vigilance in that case did not find any interpolation.

7. In the light of that, we pass the following order.

8. The Committee shall issue the validity certificate to the

petitioner of "Mannervarlu", Scheduled Tribe immediately.

9. The said validity certificate shall be subject to the decision that

would be taken by the Committee in the proceedings reopened of the

validity holders relied by the petitioner.

6. The writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
