Dt.09.12.2005 THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION NO.10070 OF 2000 O R D E R: This writ petition is filed questioning the proceedings, dated 31.03.2000 passed by the Commissioner & Director of Collegiate Education, Nampally, Hyderabad. The petitioner-Dr.S.R.J. Degree College, Atmakuru was permitted initially on 16.10.1983 with B.A. Degree Course only. For the said course, the petitioner- College was admitted to grant-in-aid. Further, B.Sc., Degree Course with M.P.C. & B.Z.C. Courses was started in July 1985. For the said courses, subsequently, the Secretary & Correspondent made an application, dated 06.10.1999, but the same was not considered. Aggrieved of the same, the petitioner earlier moved this Court by filing W.P.No.22261 of 1996. This Court by order, dated 30.10.1999 directed the respondents to consider the application of the petitioner for admission to grant-in- aid. In compliance of the said orders passed by this Court, the representation of the Secretary & Correspondent of the petitioner-College was considered and rejected by the impugned order, dated 31.03.2000. It is submitted by the petitioner that as the College was started in the year 1983, it is entitled for admission to grant-in-aid for the B.Sc., Course with M.P.C. & B.Z.C. course and other courses, which were started subsequent to 1985. To regulate grant-in-aid, the State Government has enacted Act 22 of 1988 of A.P.Education Act. As per the provisions of the said Act, the Courses, which were started after 01.03.1985 are not entitled for admission to grant-in-aid. Merely because the petitioner-College was started with B.A. Course in the year 1983, it is not entitled for admission to grant-in-aid to the other courses, namely, B.Sc., with M.P.C. & B.Z.C., etc., which were admittedly started subsequent to 01.03.1985. Further, the petitioner has not challenged any other provisions of the Act relating to Act 22 of 1988 and in the absence of the same, no relief can be granted in the writ petition. The writ petition is dismissed as devoid of merit. No costs. ___________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY J., Dt.09.12.2005 tjs
