IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY ORDINARY ORIGINAL CIVIL JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.2928 OF 2001 Dinesh H. Patel and Anr. .....Petitioners V/s. Union of India & Ors. ..... Respondents. Mr.R.V.Govilkar, for the petitioners. Mrs.Trupati Shetty i/by Dhruve Liladhar & Co., for respondent No.3. Mr.S.M.Shah a/w V.B.Tiwari, for the Union of India. CORAM : P.B.MAJMUDAR & R.M.SAVANT, JJ. DATE : JUNE 11, 2009 P.C. 1. The petitioners are the qualified mechanical engineers and are the members of Institute of Mechanical Engineers (India), Bombay. The grievance of the petitioners is that the respondent No.3 is holding examination for grant of degrees and diplomas in mechanical engineering though at the relevant time, no registration was given by respondent No.1 and 2. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that initially registration was granted to respondent No.3, but subsequently, it was withdrawn and the petitioners therefore, by way of this petition, has challenged the action of respondent No.3 in conducting examinations on the ground that there was no recognition given to respondent No.3. 2. During the course of hearing, it is pointed out by the learned counsel appearing for the Union of India that by way of Notification dated 2 24-11-2006, the Government of India, Ministry of Human Resource Development, Department of Higher Education, has already restored recognition with effect from 16-10-2006. The said Notification is taken on record and marked as ‘X’ for identification. The learned counsel for the petitioners has also gone through the said notification and submitted that it is true that the recognition is restored. Since the Government of India, through the Ministry of Human Resource Development, has already restored the recognition to respondent No.3, in our view, now the grievance made in the petition has become infructous and at present, grievance no longer survives. In view of the aforesaid development, the petition is disposed of on the ground that the recognition has been restored to the respondent No.3. It is clarified that we have not gone through the other allegations made in the petition and the petition is disposed of only on the aforesaid ground. ( R.M.SAVANT, J. ) (P.B.MAJMUDAR, J.)
