DATE : 28TH APRIL, 2009 JUDGMENT ( PER P.B.MAJMUDAR, J.) . Rule, by consent of the parties made returnable forthwith and heard. By way of this petition, the petitioner prays for cancellation of the Order of termination dated 30th March, 2001, by the respondent- Bank. The services of the petitioner were terminated on the ground of invalidation of her Caste Certificate. The learned counsel for the petitioner states that the Bank has acted pursuant to the decision of the scrutiny committee invalidating the Caste Certificate of the petitioner as belonging to Mahadeo Koli. In the course of hearing of the Writ Petition it is pointed out that the father of the petitioner had also challenged the decision of the Scrutiny Committee invalidating his Caste Certificate as belonging to Mahadeo Koli. A Division Bench of this Court by its Judgment dated 10th February, 2006, has 3 dismissed the said petition and discharged the Rule. Since the claim of the father of the petitioner as belonging to Mahadeo Koli has already been rejected, the petitioner as a daughter cannot have a better right. In view of the said decision of the Division Bench in respect of the father of the petitioner, we do not find any substance in the above Writ Petition. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the Scrutiny Committee was not properly constituted. We need not go into the said issue in view of the fact that the Scrutiny Committee has already rejected the claim of the petitioner's father as belonging to Mahadeo Koli. In view of the aforesaid important subsequent event in the case of the father of the petitioner, there is no substance in the petition which is accordingly dismissed. Rule discharged.
