CORAM : D.D. SINHA AND A.P. BHANGALE, JJ. DATED : MARCH 13, 2009 Heard Shri Puri, learned Counsel for the petitioner, and Shri Sambre, learned Government Pleader for the respondents. Shri Puri, learned Counsel for the petitioner, states that the petitioner had submitted application to the competent Authority, dated 12.5.2008, for seeking permission to start Junior College. It is submitted that the respondents vide impugned communication dated 20.10.2008 rejected the said proposal on the ground that no objection certificate submitted by the petitioner along with application was not a genuine document and there were other shortcomings noticed in the said proposal submitted by the petitioner. It is contended that in 2 view of policy of the State Government itself, it is not necessary to submit no objection certificate and, therefore, proposal of the petitioner could not have been rejected on this count. Shri Sambre, learned Government Pleader states that the petitioner applied for grant of permission to start Junior College for the academic session 2008-09 and all the applications submitted by the persons seeking such permission are required to be considered by the State Government on or before 8th October every year. It is submitted that in the instant case, proposal of the petitioner was not forwarded by the District Level Committee to the State Level Committee in view of certain shortcomings in the said proposal and, therefore, by the impugned communication, the petitioner is informed accordingly. Be that as it may, since petitioner has applied for permission to start Junior College for the academic session 2008-09, it is too late in a day to consider the issue about eligibility of the petitioner for grant of permission to start Junior College for the said academic session and it is always open for the petitioner to apply afresh for the next academic year. 3 In the circumstances, we are not inclined to show indulgence. The petition is disposed of accordingly. JUDGE JUDGE khj
