DATE : 9th July, 2010. PER COURT : 1. This writ petition challenges the order dated 23rd of June 2009 passed by the Joint Charity Commissioner, Latur Division, Latur, below the application No.7/2005. The petitioners/trustees, are placed under suspension till the proceedings under section 41-D of Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950 are completed. The charges are framed by the Joint Charity Commissioner against the petitioners. 2. After going through the order passed by the Joint Charity Commissioner and after hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner, it is apparent that the exercise carried out by the Joint Charity Commissioner is in terms of the provisions of section 41-D of the Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950 (hereinafter referred to as "the said Act"). 2 Once, the charges are framed, the inquiry has to be made. The fit person has been appointed, who has taken over the charge of the trust. Hence, no fault can be found with the order passed by the Joint Charity Commissioner. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner, however, submits that the fit person is unable to manage the affairs of the school, the grants are not released, as a result of which the interest of students and management would suffer. Hence, he submits that in the interest of justice, direction is required to be given to the Joint Charity Commissioner to decide the proceedings under section 41-D of the said Act at an earliest. 4. Keeping in view of the request made by the learned counsel for the petitioners, the Joint Charity Commissioner, Latur Division, Latur is hereby directed to conclude the proceedings under section 41-D of the said Act as far as possible within a period of 8 months from today. It will also be open for petitioners to make the complaint in respect of non release of grants, to the Joint Charity Commissioner, to seek administrative directions to fit person. 5. Writ petition is dismissed. [ R.K. DESHPANDE, J. ] ssc/wp4470.09
