S. Narwade, Advocate for the petitioner Mr. K. L. Dharmadhikari, A.G.P. for the respondent no.1 Mr. D. G. Patil, Advocate for the respondent no.2 CORAM : SMT. VASANTI A. NAIK AND PRASANNA B. VARALE, JJ. DATE : 11th August, 2011. Heard the learned counsel for the parties. By this petition, the petitioner challenges the Caste Validity Certificate issued by the respondent no.2-Caste Scrutiny Committee in favour of the respondent no.2 on 03.04.2010. According to the petitioner, the respondent no.2 has obtained the Caste Validity Certificate by concealing certain documents, which shows that the respondent no.2 does not belong to ‘Kunbi’ caste, but belongs to ‘Maratha’ caste. We are not inclined to entertain the writ petition filed by a resident of the village from where 2 the respondent no.2 had contested the Gram Panchayat election, as the petitioner is in no way concerned with the matter as the petitioner has not contested the elections of the Gram Panchayat. In case the respondent no.2 has obtained the Caste Validity Certificate from the respondent no.1- Committee by practicing fraud, it is for the respondent no.1-Committee to take action against the respondent no.2. We, however, do not find any reason to interfere with the Caste Validity Certificate of the respondent no.2 at the behest of the petitioner, who is merely a resident of the same village. Hence, the writ petition fail and is dismissed with no order as to costs. JUDGE JUDGE Diwale
