1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR Writ Petition No.4366 of 2007 (Surendrasingh s/o Bajrangsingh Chandel v. The Scheduled Tribe Caste Certificate Scrutiny Committee, Nagpur, and others) Office Notes, Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders or directions Court's or Judge's orders and Registrar's order Shri A.S. Chandurkar with Shri M.P. Khanjanchi, Advocates for Petitioner. Smt. S.W. Deshpande, Advocate for Respondent No.1. Miss Tajwar Khan, Advocate for Respondent No.2. None for Respondent No.3, though served. Coram : A.H. Joshi and A.R. Joshi, JJ. Dated : 23 st November, 2009 1. The learned Advocate for the petitioner prays for continuation of interim order by way of stay of decision of the Scrutiny Committee, by which the tribe certificate of the petitioner was cancelled. 2. The ground putforth for this prayer is that the stay of cancellation was in operation for more than two years. We are not satisfied with the prayer made in the background that the status, which was not available to the petitioner in law, has been enjoyed 2 by him for long duration, and that too due to pendency of petition. This is not a good ground for continuation of interim relief when on merits, it is found that petitioner’s tribe claim is false. 3. The prayer for continuation of interim relief is, therefore, rejected. Judge. Judge. pdl
