FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD WRIT PETITION NO. 4556 OF 2010 “The State of Maharashtra Vs. Shivaji Kantiram Yelpalwad and another” Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram appearances, Court's Orders Court's or Judge's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. 1 Mr. S.K. Tambe, AGP for the petitioner CORAM :- B.R. GAVAI & K.K. TATED, JJ. DATE :- 19TH NOVEMBER, 2010. PER COURT :- 1] This is a glaring example of a totally unwarranted litigation at the best of the State Government. 2] The State Government is a major contributor to the huge pendency of litigation before this court. Merely because the State Government does not have to spend for the litigation from its own packet, it does not mean that the State should file petition even when the orders which are sought to be impugned are totally in consonance with the law laid down. 3] In the present case, the learned Maharashtra Administrative Tribunal has allowed the original application filed by the respondent, finding that the there was no fault on the part of the respondent in not submitting the validity certificate, inasmuch as, though the documents were submitted by him to his employer, the Scrutiny committee had not decided the validity of his caste claim.

Shivaji Kantiram Yelpalwad and another” Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram appearances, Court's Orders Court's or Judge's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. 2 4] We, therefore, dismiss the petition and expect that atleast, hereinafter, the State Government and the competent authority i.e. the Joint Secretary, Law and Judiciary Department, would apply his mind, while granting permission for filing such petitions. 5] A copy of this order be forwarded to the Chief Secretary, the Principal Secretary, Law and Judiciary Department, Mantralaya, Mumbai and the Joint Secretary, Law and Judiciary Department, Aurangabad.
