1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.2880 OF 2010 Sushila Bapuso Koli ...Petitioner Versus Schedule Tribe Certificate Scrutiny Committee, Pune Division, Pune & Ors. ...Respondents ...... Mr.Rahul P.Walvekar for Petitioner. Mr.D.V.Sutar for Respondents 2 & 3. ...... CORAM:- A.M.KHANWILKAR AND R.M.SAVANT, JJ. DATED:- APRIL 15, 2010. P.C. 1. Heard Counsel for the parties. 2. Considering the record of this case, we see no infirmity in the conclusion reached by the Scrutiny Committee. The grievance of the Petitioner primarily is that the decision has been reached by the Scrutiny Committee without giving fair opportunity to the Petitioner. We reject the said argument keeping in mind the facts noted in Paragraph 4 to Paragraph 9 of the impugned decision, which factual position will bind this Court. Considering the said factual position stated in the above mentioned paragraphs, we are more than convinced that sufficient opportunity was 2 given to the Petitioner who failed to avail of the same. The Vigilance Cell in its report has brought on record the disparity and the falsity in the claim of the Petitioner which has been duly taken note of by the Scrutiny Committee. Perhaps the attempt of the Petitioner was to protract the proceedings before the Scrutiny Committee so as to enjoy the benefit of being member of the Gram Panchayat which position she continues to hold from 2008. 3. In our view, therefore, no interference in exercise of writ jurisdiction is warranted. Dismissed. (R.M.SAVANT, J.) (A.M.KHANWILKAR, J.) 3
