FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, BENCH AT AURANGABAD CP/331/2010 In WP/4279/2000 WITH CP/98/2010 In WP/4879/2003 WITH CP/332/2010 In WP/3855/2000 WITH CP/333/2010 In WP/2372/2000 WITH CP/334/2010 In WP/4192/2000 WITH CP/335/2010 In WP/4110/2000 WITH CP/336/2010 In WP/4196/2000 WITH CP/337/2010 In WP/1254/2001 WITH CP/338/2010 In WP/4281/2000 WITH CP/384/2010 In WP/4112/2000 WITH CP/385/2010 In WP/3883/2000 CP/401/2010 In WP/4193/2000 ________________________________________________________ Office Notes, Office | Memoranda of Coram, | Court's or Judge's orders appearances, Court's | orders or directions | and Registrar's orders | ________________________________________________________ Heard learned Counsel for the parties. 2 Pursuant to the notice issued by this Court, respondent No.2 has filed further affidavit- in-reply dated 13th October, 2010 in Contempt Petition No.98 of 2000, paragraphs 4 and 5 of which reads, thus: "4 I say that, in pursuance of the said letter dated 18.12.2008, the concerned Special District Social Welfare Officer have submitted the necessary report to the office of the Director of VJNT, OBC, SBC, Pune. I say that, thereafter the said report has been forwarded to the State Government on 21.8.2009. I say that, since then the said proposals are pending with the Government for consideration. 5 I say that, the Government will consider the said proposal of the petitioners in all Contempt Petitions on its own merit and in accordance with law and as per the Government policy within a period of three months. I say that, after the Government takes decision, the said decision will be communicated to the Petitioners through the concerned Special District Social Welfare Officer of the districts." 3 In the light of this, in my opinion, at this stage further adjudication of the contempt petitions is not necessary. It is needless to mention that the statement made in the earlier affidavit that the proposals of the petitioners are considered and rejected would not survive in the light of paragraphs 4 and 5 of the further affidavit dated 13th October, 2010 filed by respondent NO.2. In the light of paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said affidavit, the respondents will be obliged to consider the proposals of all the petitioners. 4 In the light of above, the contempt petitions are disposed of. Notice stands discharged. (S.S. SHINDE, J.) 15.10.2010. PLK/*
