She applied for scrutiny of her caste claim in April 2006, but it is her case that her application is misplaced and another application is made in September 2006. 3. Mr.Bhagoji, Advocate appearing for the petitioner, states that in the meanwhile she has been admitted in the 4th respondent-College in a reserved seat. Now, the College is insisting on the scrutiny certificate and rightly so. 4. Even so, considering that the petitioner is already admitted, we request the 2nd respondent-Scrutiny Committee to decide the claim of the petitioner at the earliest and preferably, within three months from the receipt of the application. 5. The petitioner will appear before the Scrutiny Committee on 29th January 2007 and co-operate with the Committee in the matter. The petitioner will not seek any adjournment. The College will not discontinue her studies and in the meanwhile, the decision of the Committee, if adverse to the petitioner, will not be acted upon for a period of eight weeks after the same is served on the petition. 6. Petition is disposed of with the above order. (ACTING C.J.) (ACTING C.J.) (ACTING C.J.) (V.M. KANADE, J.) (V.M. KANADE, J.) (V.M. KANADE, J.)
