DATED : 24TH AUGUST, 2011 ORAL ORDER: 1. The limited grievance of the petitioners in these Petitions is that though the deficiencies as pointed out by the Expert's Visiting Committee of respondent no.1-AICTE are removed, the Expert's (2) WP 5895.2011+ Visiting Committee has not recommended and submitted its report to the respondent no.1. 2. We find that the purpose of both the Petitions would be served by directing the respondent no.1-AICTE to appoint Expert's Committee and direct it to visit the petitioners' colleges and obtain its reports. If such a report is submitted by the Expert's Committee, the respondent no.1 shall reconsider the matter regarding the grant of letter of approval to the petitioners. 3. We are inclined to pass such directions in view of the fact that the Division Bench presided over by the Hon'ble the Chief Justice sitting at Mumbai have issued similar directions in similar circumstances. We, therefore, find that the petitioners also on the ground of parity are entitled to the same treatment. 4. Both Petitions are disposed of with the aforesaid directions. Sd/- Sd/- [M. T.
