SMT.NISHITA MHATRE, JJ. DATED : 17TH JANUARY, 2008 DATED : 17TH JANUARY, 2008 DATED : 17TH JANUARY, 2008 P.C.: 1. The petitioner has challenged the order of the Caste Scrutiny Committee invalidating the Caste Certificate issued to her, declaring that she was a Tokare Koli. The Caste Scrutiny Committee has considered the various documents produced by the petitioner, including the validity certificate issued to her paternal uncles. It has also considered the fact that the petitioner’s father’s school has noted the later’s caste as Hindu Koli in 2 the school records. The Committee has also considered the affinity test as well as the other evidence produced by the petitioner and in our opinion, has rightly concluded that the petitioner does not belong to the Scheduled Tribe, Tokare Koli. 2. In these circumstances, it can hardly be argued on behalf of the petitioner that rather than father’s caste the court should consider the fact that her uncles have been treated as Tokare Kolis. We find that the Caste Scrutiny Committee has considered all the relevant evidence and has arrived at a correct conclusion. There are no errors of law apparent on the face of the record requiring interference of this court under Article 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India. Petition is rejected. ( J.N.
