(1) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JODHPUR **** :ORDER: Rajasthan Nurses Association Vs. The State of Raj. & ors. D.B. Civil Writ Petition No.6530/2009 Date of Order ::: 20.08.2010 PRESENT Hon'ble the Chief Justice Mr. Jagdish Bhalla Hon'ble Mr. Justice Dinesh Maheshwari None present for the petitioner (in the first call). Mr. Sunil Joshi, for the petitioner (on mention). BY THE COURT: This petition filed as Public Interest Litigation way back on 07.07.2009 has remained pending all this time with several rounds of adjournments. It is noticed that this petition was, in the first place, taken up by the Court on 23.10.2009 when it was adjourned for two weeks at the request of the counsel for the petitioner. Thereafter, on 25.11.2009, it was again adjourned at the request of counsel for the petitioner. Then, on 11.01.2010, two weeks' time was allowed to the counsel for the petitioner to bring some more relevant documents on record. The case was listed on 01.02.2010 with the report that no such documents have been filed. The case was, however, adjourned on 01.02.2010 and yet again on 23.07.2010. (2) Nobody is present for the petitioner today nor any request has been made. We find no reason to keep this matter pending any further. However, in the interest of justice, we have also considered the averments taken in the writ petition and we find absolutely no cause involving public interest. The petitioner seeks to submit that the State Government is not according necessary permission for starting B.Sc. Nursing Course in M.G. Hospital, Jodhpur and on the other hand permission for starting such B.Sc. Nursing Courses in private sectors has been granted. On the averments as taken, we do not find anything involving public interest so as to warrant interference by this Court. The petition, therefore, stands dismissed. On mention After dictation but before signing of the order foregoing, the counsel for the petitioner appeared and made a request for hearing with the submission that he could not attend the matter when called out due to his personal difficulty. Having regard to the submissions made and in the interest of justice, we have extended opportunity to the counsel and heard him. Even after hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner, we are unable to find any reason to entertain this petition as a Public Interest Litigation. It is moreover noticed that this petition has been filed in the name of Rajasthan Nurses Association by its President (3) but without placing on record any specific resolution of the Association for filing this writ petition and authorisation of its President to do so. This apart, it is further noticed that the cause sought to be raised in this writ petition cannot be said to be detached from the petitioner Association and rather it appears to be the cause in which the petitioner Association has direct personal interest. Learned counsel for the petitioner, during the course of his submissions, attempted to suggest that the Central Government has already allocated certain funds for upgrading the courses and only certain aspects relating to infrastructure are to be taken care of by the State Government. We are not commenting on these submissions and suggestions; however, on the basis of these submissions, no case is made out for entertaining the present writ petition as a Public Interest Litigation. Therefore, the petition remains dismissed as already ordered. [Dinesh Maheshwari],J. [Jagdish Bhalla],CJ /skm/
