JUSTICE IA ANSARI Heard Mr. BC Das, learned Senior counsel, assisted by Mr. DA Kaiyum, lea rned counsel, for the petitioners, and Mr. AD Choudhury, learned Standing counse l, Education Department, appearing on behalf of respondents. The stand of the State respondents is that the Government has decided to discontinue with the providing of financial assistance to the venture schools, w.e.f. 01-04-2011. However, on the basis of the information received from the De puty Director, Elementary Education, Assam, under the Right to Information Act, the petitioners submits that the Government has not issued any order or communic ation withdrawing or discontinuing the scheme of financial assistance to the ven ture educational institutions. The petitioners, therefore, apprehend that their cases may not be considered, whenever decision to grant financial assistance is taken by the Government. Considering the fact that the writ petition has been filed on apprehensi on that the petitioners’ application seeking financial assistance may not be con sidered, when the Government decides to act upon the scheme of financial assista nce, which has presently been dispensed with, this writ petition is disposed of with direction to the respondents to ensure that the cases of the petitioners ar e also considered along with other applicants, who may have applied for financia l assistance. The information received by the petitioners from the Deputy Director, Elementary Education, Assam, which has been produced today by Mr. BC Das, learned Senior c ounsel, for the petitioners, shall be kept with the record of this Court.
