1/2 PIL/26/2011 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION NO.26 OF 2011 High Court on its own motion ….. Petitioner. V/s State of Maharashtra …... Respondent. Ms. Rebecaa Gonsalves, amicus curiae for the Petitioner. Ms. A.S. Pai, APP for the State. CORAM: V. M. KANADE & P.D. KODE JJ. DATE: 21ST JULY, 2014 P.C.:- 1. Respondents are directed to submit the information after collecting the same as per the directions given by this Court by order dated 17th April, 2014 wherever possible. This is because one of the informations which has been directed to be placed before this Court is as under:- “(c) as to whether the State maintains record of birth and death of children in the State on yearly basis and if so as to whether any record 2/2 PIL/26/2011 is available to show the percentage of enrollment of children in school compared to the birth ratio?” It may not be possible for the State to give information regarding percentage of enrollment of children in school compared to the birth ratio because such information will not be available to the State since in many cases children are admitted to school at different ages. So the said order is slightly modified and requirement to show the percentage of enrollment of children in school compared to birth ratio as stated in (c) above is dispensed with. Similarly, the State Government may also inform this Court whether there is compliance of Rules (8A), (8B) and (26A) of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Rules. 2. Stand over to 19/08/2014. (P.D. KODE, J. ) (V.M. KANADE, J.) BDPPS
