The respondents to this Civil Application are the writ petitioners who have impugned an order dated 7.7.2007 passed by the Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities, Pune in Suo Motu Petition No.882/07-08. The petition was admitted by this court and this court has ordered status-quo. 3. In the meanwhile, the applicant prayed to the :2: :2: :2: Learned Presiding Officer of the University Tribunal, Pune to hear and dispose off the Appeal No. 9 of 2007. The Commissioner’s order is under challenge in this petition before this court. However, the applicant has invoked the jurisdiction of the University Tribunal constituted under the Maharashtra Universities Act, 1994. In my view, the relief that is prayed for in the Civil Application is to direct the University Tribunal to hear and dispose off the pending Appeal No.9 of 2007, which relief can be granted. 4. Accordingly and when even the original petitioners have no objection to appropriate clarification being issued, it is directed that the University Tribunal, Pune shall hear and dispose off the Appeal pending before it as expeditiously as possible. It is clarified that the order granted by this court in the subject Writ petition directing parties to maintain status-quo, shall not in any manner preclude or prevent the University Tribunal from deciding the said Appeal. All contentions in that Appeal of both sides are kept open. Civil Application is disposed off. sd/- :3: :3: :3: *******
