JUSTICE H.S BHALLA Present: Mr. Sanjeev Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner(s). * * * * * Viney Mittal, J. (Oral) Notice of motion. Mr. Anupam Gupta, Advocate accepts notice on behalf of respondents no. 1& 2. Copy of the writ petition has been supplied to Mr. Gupta. The petitioners have approached this court for issuance of directions to the respondents to release the grant of the petitioners for the year 2003-2004. From the perusal of the record, we find that on an earlier occasion, the petitioners had approached this Court through a Civil Writ Petition No.5496 of 2006. The said writ petition was finally disposed of with a direction to the respondents to consider the claim made by the petitioners and take a final decision in accordance with law. C.W.P NO. 15883 OF 2006 2 However, we find that in spite of the fact that All India Council of Technical Education has issued a communication dated July 3, 2006 intimating to the petitioners that the case of the petitioners had been examined and was found fit and it had been decided that council would release the grant-in-aid to Punjab University, Chandigarh in respect of the M.Tech students of 2nd year batch (2003-04), who were pursuing their Postgraduate studies in Microelectronics discipline at Punjab University, Chandigarh, but it has been further mentioned that the matter of actual release of the GAT scholarship amount to all the six students would be taken up separately at the earliest possible time. A period of more than 3 months has expired since the aforesaid communication. No action seems to have been taken by the council. Accordingly, we dispose of the present petition with a direction to the All India Council of Technical Education-respondent no.3, to disburse the amount which the 6 students of Second year Batch 2003-04 are entitled to, as indicated in the communication dated July 3, 2006 within a period of 2 months from the date a certified copy of this order is received. Copy of the order be given dasti on payment of the usual charges. ( VINEY MITTAL ) JUDGE September 29, 2006 ( H.S BHALLA ) ritu JUDGE
