19.6.2008 Present: Mr. Rakesh Jaswal, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. G. D. Sharma, Advocate, for the respondents. CWP No. 773/2008 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner’s application for re-affiliation has been rejected on the ground that it is delayed by 23 days. Though there is no statutory provision providing the limit of filing application for re-affiliation, however, it has been rejected in the light of the observations made in the judgment in CWP No. 103 of 2007, Indian Educational Society v. H. P. Board of School Education and another etc. of this Court, whereby the affiliation was granted by the orders of the Court. However, we are of the considered opinion that this Court can only direct the authority concerned to consider the application of re-affiliation of the petitioner in accordance with law by a speaking order. We have been further informed by the learned counsel that through this judgment referred to hereinabove affiliation was granted by the Board. Accordingly, we direct the respondents to consider the application for re-affiliation within a period of two weeks from today ignoring 23 days’ delay referred to above in their earlier order by a speaking order. We have been apprised that in similar circumstances this Court vide an order dated 6.6.2008 passed in CWP No. 900 of 2008 has been pleased to give certain directions by making observations. Therefore, the present writ petition is being disposed of in the light of the observations made hereinabove. Accordingly, the writ petition stands disposed of. Copy dasti. ( R. B. Misra ), J.
