1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR. Writ Petition No.4653 of 2008. Smt. Zitobai Wd/o L:ate Bairagi. v Western Coal Fields Ltd., and another. Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram appearances, Court's orders or directions Court's or Judge's Orders and Registrar's orders. Shri C. A. Joshi, Advocate for the petitioner. Coram : B.H. Marlapalle and A.H. Joshi, JJ. Dated : 20th October, 2008. Heard Mr. Joshi, the Learned Counsel for the Petitioner who is a widow of deceased employee of Respondent No.1 Mining Company. The petitioner submitted an application on 12-5-2008 praying for inclusion of Shri Durgeshkumar as her legal heir, and to be recorded by the Respondents accordingly. By the communication dated 31-5-2008, the respondent no.2 informed the petitioner that the adoption was not legally valid as it did not fulfill the provisions of Hindu Adoption and Mining Act 1956. It was further 2 pointed out that the same request was made and turned down as per the notification dated 9-8-2007. Being aggrieved by the communication dated 31-5-2008, the Petitioner has approached this Court in Writ Petition No.3195 of 2008 and sought permission to withdraw the said petition so as to approach the appropriate Forum, and accordingly, the Petition was disposed off as withdrawn on 25-7-2008. Instead of approaching the Civil Court, the Petitioner submitted yet another representation on 31-7-2008, and by this petition, in the second round, prays for directions to consider the said representation dated 31-7-08, and further directions to record the name of Shri Durgeshkumar S/o Bairagi as an adopted son of the Petitioner. We have no doubt that this petition in the second round is not maintainable for the very same relief and the petitioner was required to approach the competent Civil Court to get the adoption deed declared as a valid adoption under the Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act 1956. In absence of such a declaration by the competent 3 Court, the directions prayed for cannot be given in the Writ Petition. Hence, the petition is rejected. JUDGE JUDGE /Muley/
