DATE : 18TH JULY, 2006 DATE : 18TH JULY, 2006 DATE : 18TH JULY, 2006 P.C. . Heard 2. From the affidavit of Dr. Arun Damodar Sawant, dated 27th February, 2004, it is seen that the directions given by the Court has been complied with. Counsel for the petitioner prays for time to ascertain this position. There is no reason to grant further time :2: for the simple reason that the affidavit referred to above has been filed as back as in February, 2004. More than two years have elapsed. This period was more than sufficient for the petitioner to file appropriate affidavit, if any, if the petitioner was so advised. There is no reason to doubt the correctness of the stand taken by the Officer of the rank of Joint Director of Higher Education, stated on affidavit. Suffice it to observe that as the direction of the Court is complied with, it will not be appropriate to precipitate the matter any further. Hence, petition is disposed of. Notice issued to respondents stand discharged. It will be open to the petitioner to revive this petition on producing material to show that the statement made in the affidavit of Mr. Sawant is incorrect or false. ( A.M. KHANWILKAR, J.) ( A.M.
