WP(C) 5810/2011 BEFORE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE I A ANSARI The present writ petition has been filed by the petitioners against non-receipt of financial assistance from the Government under the Government’s Financial As sistance to the Venture Educational Institutions . Heard Mr. S. H. Rahman, learned counsel for the writ petitioners, and Mr . J. Abedin, learned Standing counsel, Education Department, Government of Assam , appearing on behalf of the State respondents. The stand of the State respondents is that the Government has decided to discontinue with the providing of financial assistance to the venture schools, w.e.f. 01.04.2011. However, on the basis of the information received from the Deputy Director, Elem entary Education, Assam, under the Right to Information Act, the petitioners sub mit that the Government has not issued any order or communication withdrawing or discontinuing the scheme of financial assistance to the venture educations inst itutions. The petitioners, therefore, apprehend that their cases may not be con sidered, whenever decision to grant financial assistance is taken by the Governm ent. Considering the fact that the writ petition has been filed on apprehension that the petitioners’ application seeking financial assistance may not be considered, when the Government decides to act upon the scheme of financial assistance, whi ch has presently been dispensed with, this writ petition is disposed of with dir ection to the respondents/authorities concerned to ensure that the cases of the petitioners are also considered along with other applicants, who may have applie d for financial assistance. The information received by the petitioners from the Deputy Director, Elementary Education, Assam, which has been produced today by Mr. S. H. Rahman, learned co unsel for the petitioners, shall be kept with the record of this case. Furnish a copy of this order to the learned Standing counsel, Education Departme nt.
