G.A. forthe State. WRIT PETITION UNDER ARTICLB 226 OF THB CONSTITUTION OP INDIA ORDBR (13.10.2011) Grievance of the petitioner in the present petition is that the respondent/authorities are asking him to produce relevant caste certificate duly verified from the High Power Caste Scrutiny Committee but the said committee is neither issuing a requisite form to him nor is responding in any manner. Counsel for the petitioner submits that on the one hand, the Committee is not entertaining the petitioner and on the other hand a threat is being given by the department to take disciplinary action against him. State counsel very fairly submits that the caste scrutiny committee would entertain the case of the petitioner and pass an appropriate order in accordance with law. He submits that the Committee will also issue the requisite form in favour of the petitioner if he approaches the authority within the time frame. Considering the facts and circumstances of the oase, the petition ia disposed of with a direction to the petitioner to approach the Hi^i Power Caste Scrutiny Committee within 15 days from the date of receipt of copy of this order and in turn the said High Power Caste Scrutiny Commxttee will issue requisite form to the petitioner which would be subinitted by him within a further period of one week and thereafter the Oommittee shall examine the matter and would pass appropriate order in accordance with law within further period of five months. Needless to say that due co- operation shall be offered by the parties for early disposal of the case by the Committee. Tilt next sb^ months, the department will not take any coercive steps against the petitioner for not submitting the caste certificate issued by the Committee. Sd/- Pritinker Diwaker Judge
