CORAM : D.D. SINHA AND A.P. BHANGALE, JJ. DATED : FEBRUARY 9, 2009 Heard Shri Bhide, learned amicus curie, Shri Sambre, learned Government Pleader for the respondent nos. 1, 3 and 4, and Shri Kulkarni, learned Counsel for the respondent no.2. Shri Kulkarni, learned Counsel for the respondent no.2, states that pursuance to the show cause notice issued by the Commissioner, Tribal Development, Nasik to the respondent no.2 why recognition, which is granted to the Ashram School, should not be cancelled, hearing is scheduled today. Shri Sambre, learned Government Pleader states that the Commissioner, Tribal Development, Nasik shall take a decision after considering the defence of the respondent no.2, at the earliest and if decision is taken to de-recognise the School, 2 appropriate action in accordance with law shall be taken. In the backdrop of the above referred facts, grievance which was entertained by this Court in the public interest, at this stage appears to have been redressed. During the course of hearing of the matter, if Commissioner, Tribal Development, Nasik comes across lapses, if any committed by any of the Government officials in this regard, we expect the Commissioner to proceed against them in accordance with law, if necessary. We appreciate the cooperation given by Shri Bhide, learned amicus curiae and other learned Counsel for the respondents. With the above observations, the petition is disposed of. Needless to mention that it is open for the respondent no.2 to exhaust remedies available in law, if decision of Commissioner, Tribal Development, Nasik is adverse to the respondent no.2.
