Date: 03.08.2011 Heard learned counsel for the parties. Learned counsel for the petitioner, on instructions, does not press the prayer clause (B) in the writ petition and seeks direction to respondent no.3 - scrutiny committee to decide his appeal against the order dated 21.2.2009 passed by the Sub Divisional Officer. The Sub Divisional Officer by order dated 21.2.2009 rejected the petitioner's WP 4739/11 2 application for issuance of caste certificate. The petitioner has not stated as to when he filed appeal before respondent no.3 - scrutiny committee. Keeping that in view and considering the statement made in the writ petition that the appeal is filed, we dispose of this writ petition by the following order. If the petitioner's appeal is pending before respondent no.3 - scrutiny committee challenging the order dated 21.2.2009 passed by the Sub Divisional Officer (Exhibit C to the writ petition), the scrutiny committee shall endeavour to dispose it of as expeditiously as possible and preferably within a period of six months from the date of receipt of this order. It is made clear that while passing this order, we have not examined merits of the case. (S.B. Deshmukh, J.) (D.B. Bhosale, J.) Dt/- 03.08.2011 ndk/c38119
