By this petition, the petitioners seek a writ/direction to the respondent No.3 to issue a permanentcaste certificate to the petitioners and further cost of the petition. 2. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have made an application before the Sub Divisional Officer on the basis that the petitioners' father was granted permanent caste certificate on 29-9-1993. Learned counsel further submits that, later on, the Sub Divisional Officer declined to issue the certificate. The same is not impugned in this petition. 3. tn view of foregoing, the petition cannot be examined on merits. However, having regard to the fact that if the petitioners belong to a particular community they may not be deprived from getting the social status certificate, liberty is reserved to the petitioners to make fresh application along with the required documents before the competent authority. If an application is madeby the petitioners, the competent authority is directed to consider and decide the same,in accordance with law and on its own merits. 4.
