ORAL ORDER. While disposing of the Writ Petition No. 2861/2010 this Court has observed that the school leaving certificate dated 07.03.2009 purported to have been signed by the Headmistress of Zilla Parishad Primary School, Wadki, District Yavatmal is a fabricated document, since the original register does not contain the word “Bagwan”, which words appears to have been inserted for the first time in the certificate. We are thus of the view that prima facie a commission of offence under Section 196 of the Indian Penal Code is disclosed. 2. In the circumstances, we consider it expedient and in the interest of justice that an enquiry should be made into the commission of offence under Section 196 of the Indian Penal Code, which appears to have been committed in relation to a proceeding in this Court and the Caste Scrutiny Committee. We hereby issue summons to the petitioner - Ku. Farhin Anjum d/o Mushtaq Ali Sayyad, resident of Azad Ward, Warora, District Chandrapur and Sharda Arjun Kotkar, working as Headmistress of Zilla Parishad Primary School, Wadki, District Yavatmal to show cause why criminal prosecution for the 3 offence punishable under section 196 of the Indian Penal Code in relation to production of the aforesaid School leaving certificate dated 07.03.2009 before the Caste Scrutiny Committee and this Court should not be initiated against them. The summons is made returnable on 13th April, 2011. JUDGE JUDGE Rgd.
