CORAM:- SUNIL B. SHUKRE & ANIL L. PANSARE, JJ.
DATED :- 11.10.2022
ORAL JUDGMENT (Per: Sunil B. Shukre, J.)
Heard. Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith.
Heard finally by consent of learned counsel for the parties.
2. It is seen that the petitioner has suppressed
material facts from this Court. There is an affidavit submitted
by the petitioner, admitting that he was appointed on a post 2 wp1071.22.odt
reserved for the Scheduled Tribes, but, later on, due to
protection granted to him by the Government Resolution
dated 18.05.2013, the petitioner agreed for changing his
category of appointment from Scheduled Tribes to Open and,
accordingly, by this affidavit dated 26.05.2016, the petitioner
gave his specific consent for change of category of his
appointment from the Scheduled Tribes to Open category.
3. Here the petitioner, however, has claimed that he
was appointed on the post, which was reserved for the Open
category and that is why he was never appointed on the post
reserved for the Scheduled Tribes category, which is contrary
to what is stated in his affidavit. There is no explanation
given in the petition about the admissions given by him. In
fact, there is no averment made about submitting of an
affidavit by him earlier. We, therefore, find that the
averments made in the petition are misleading, inasmuch as,
there is no candid disclosure about the admissions given by
the petitioner in the affidavit dated 26.05.2016. The 3 wp1071.22.odt
petitioner does not deserve any relief from an equity Court
like this. Therefore, the petition stands dismissed.
Rule is discharged.
