GAVAI,J.] :- 1] The petitioners are seeking a writ that certain villages should be included in the scheme of the State Government, known as Integrated Tribal Development Project. It appears that the decision as to which villages are to be included in the project is taken by taking into consideration the population of tribals in a particular village, as defined in the 1991 census. Such of the villages wherein the population of the tribals is more than 50% have been included for the benefit of the said scheme. Not only that, but from the communication dated 22/6/1994, it can be revealed that certain 3 other villages, wherein the population of the tribals is more than 50% , which villages are in continuity would also be taken into consideration for the purpose of the said scheme. In that view of the matter, we do not find that the writ sought can be issued in exercise of our extraordinary jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution. Hence, the writ petition is dismissed. Rule is discharged. [S.V. GANGAPURWALA,J.] [B.R. GAVAI,J.] grt/wp.
