Pathak, learned Standing Counsel, Education Department appe aring for all the respondents. As agreed to by the learned counsel for the appe aring parties, the case is taken up for disposal at the motion stage itself. The petitioners, by the present petition, have p rayed for a direction to the respondent authorities to consider their cases for grant of financial assistance in terms of the Scheme formulated by the Governmen t of Assam. According to the petitioners, on the earlier occasion, their cases were not considered for which they have the apprehension that in this financial year also their cases may not be considered though they are entitled to such fin ancial assistance. It is not in dispute that the Government of Assa m has formulated the Scheme for grant of financial assistance to the deserving s chools on the basis of need-cum-seniority. If the petitioners apply for grant o f such financial assistance and they come within the zone of consideration and a lso fulfill the requirement stipulated in the Scheme formulated by the Governmen t of Assam, their cases shall definitely be considered by the respondent authori ties for providing the financial assistance for the year 2010-2011. Such consid eration is to be made only in the event that their names are forwarded by the au thority concerned. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. N o cost.
