THE HONOURABLE SRI BILAL NAZKI THE ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE AND THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No. 13982 of 2004 Dated 19th October, 2005 Between: Guild of Service Seva Samajam Balika Nilayam 10-3-561/3 Vijayanagar Colony, Hyderabad … Petitioner And The Government of State of Andhra Pradesh Women Development & Child Welfare Department Secretariat, Hyderabad and others. … Respondents. ORAL ORDER: (per Honourable Sri Bilal Nazki, the Acting Chief Justice) Nobody appears for the petitioner. On the last two occasions also nobody appeared for the petitioner. On the last occasion, we had directed the learned Government Pleader to file a fresh status report. He has filed fresh status report. According to the report, there are 35 children with the Shishu Vihar, whose names are put on the internet with full information for inter-country adoption and these children are taken care of. Most of these children have one or the other problem and many of them are even HIV positive. Therefore, it appears that there are not many people who are ready to take them in adoption. The Writ Petition has been filed basically seeking a direction that the petitioner should be granted licence to enable the petitioner to process the cases of children for their adoption. The learned counsel for respondents submits that the children have been taken due care of and some of them have already been either given in adoption or sent for rehabilitation or handed over to their biological parents. Now, there are only 35 children with the Shishu Vihar. With regard to the allegation of the petitioner for grant of licence, it is submitted that the matter has been referred to the concerned authorities and is under their consideration. In view of this assurance, no further orders are needed to be passed in this writ petition. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. _________________ (BILAL NAZKI, ACJ.) 19.10.2005. ___________________ (R.SUBHASH REDDY, J.) VR.
