DATE : MAY 20, 2011. Heard Mrs. Kulkarni, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mrs. Nandita Tripathi, learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the respondents. The petitioner prays for grant of parole leave for a period of fifteen to twenty days to attend marriage of his brother which is scheduled to be solemnized on 6th June, 2011. It is noted, during the course of hearing, that the application of the petitioner for grant of parole before the competent authority is pending. The petitioner is constrained to move this Court only because his application has not been decided by the competent authority and he is apprehending that it might not be decided within reasonable time and in the result he might be prevented from attending the marriage of his brother. The apprehension of the petitioner is genuine. However, considering the fact that his parole application is pending, the only relief this Court can grant in the petition is 2 to direct Divisional Commissioner, Amravati to hear the application expeditiously and decide it not later than 27th May, 2011. This Court directs accordingly. The petition stands disposed of accordingly. Steno copy be furnished to the parties as per Rules. The authorities to act on the basis of the steno copy. JUDGE RR..
