Kishore Counsel for Respondents: Government Pleader for School Education. April 13, 2006 Per G.S.

Arguments in this case were heard with Writ Appeal No.1170 of 2005 (The Government of Andhra Pradesh v. The Mahalakshmi Devi Education Society and another) and batch filed against the orders passed by the learned Single Judges whereby similar writ petitions filed by the educational institutions were allowed and directions were given for fresh consideration of the applications made by them for grant of ‘No Objection Certificate’. Those appeals have been dismissed by a separate order pronounced today. In view of the above, this petition is allowed in similar terms. The detailed reasons recorded in the order passed today in Writ Appeal No.1170 of 2005 and batch shall be read as part of this order. The respondents are directed to consider the application of the petitioner for grant of No Objection Certificate for establishing B.Ed. college and decide the same within 15 days from the date of presentation/receipt of copy of this order. It will also be open to the petitioner to directly make an application for grant of recognition in terms of the National Council for Teacher Education (Recognition Norms and Procedure) Regulations, 2005.
