1` IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR Criminal Writ Petition No. 659/2009 Bindesingh Motiram Shende vs. The State of Maharashtra, through the Divisional Commissioner, Nagpur Division, Nagpur and another. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders Court's or Judge's or directions and Registrar's orders. Orders. CORAM : A.P.Lavande & R.K.Deshpande,JJ DATE : 15.02.2010 Heard Ms T. Udeshi, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mrs. J.B.Jaiswal, learned A.P.P. for the respondents. 2. Initially the petition was filed by the petitioner who is the convict serving sentence in Central Jail, Nagpur alleging inaction on the part of the respondents to deal with the application for parole. During the pendency of the petition the competent authority by order dated 10.8.2009 has granted parole of 30 days to the petitioner and the same has been extended for a further period of 30 days by order dated 17.11.2009 which was further extended for a period of 30 days by order dated 23.12.2009. In view of the orders passed by the competent authorities the main grievance in the petition does not survive. 3. Ms Udeshi, has further invited our attention to 2` the fact that the Tahsildar Warda has taken unduly long time for execution of the surety bond by the petitioner. 4. There is no dispute that the concerned authorities have substantially complied with the circular dated 16.12.2008 issued by the State Government prescribing the time limit to be followed by the authorities while considering the applications for parole/ furlough. However, it appears that Tahsildar, Warda has taken some time to enable the petitioner to execute the surety bond. We expect all the authorities who are dealing with the furlough/ parole applications to be vigilant and follow the circular dated 16.12.2008 in its letter and spirit. Writ petition stands disposed of accordingly. 5. Fees payable to advocate Ms T. Udeshi, who has been appointed to appear on behalf of the petitioner are quantified at Rs. 750/-. JUDGE JUDGE patle 3`
