CWP No.1297/2008. 19.08.2008 Present: Ms Jyotsna Rewal Dua, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr R.K.Bawa, Advocate General with Mr.J.K.Verma, Dy.Advocate General, for the respondents. Reply filed is taken on record. Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner had qualified for appointment for the post of Constable. At the time, the petitioner applied, caste certificate was furnished on the basis of which petitioner was selected against the reserved vacancy. It has been contended on behalf of the petitioner that there is no period prescribed for furnishing caste certificate again. Once it is issued, it has to be accepted as such. However, the stand of the respondents is that the validity of the caste certificate is two years and thereafter the petitioner has to again furnish the caste certificate. The petitioner within time applied for caste certificate. Thereafter, due to non-action on the part of respondent No.5, the petitioner could not get the caste certificate again. It resulted into that the petitioner was not sent for training. Now, the authority concerned inspite of issuing a final caste certificate has issued provisional caste certificate, thereby it means that the petitioner at the moment has a caste certificate provisionally which can entitle him for going for training. The interest of justice would suffice, if the petitioner is allowed to go for training of the Constable forthwith on the basis of provisional certificate. The petitioner has given an undertaking that in case the final caste certificate is not …2… issued in favour of the petitioner, he undertakes to return all the money incurred upon his training. Accordingly, it is provided that the petitioner is allowed to go for training in the current batch for the post of Constable. The said training would be subject to final order to be issued by respondent No.5 regarding the caste certificate of the petitioner. The petitioner seeks liberty to challenge the order which may be passed by respondent No.5, if caste certificate is refused. The petitioner is at liberty to challenge any such order if circumstance demands. With these observations, the writ petition stands disposed of, so also the pending application.
