2. We find that the petitioners are trying to avail political mileage by invocation of jurisdiction of this Court in public interest. If the scheme is approved by the State Government, it is for the State Government to oversee its implementation. This Court, in public interest jurisdiction, is not meant to supervise each and every scheme framed by the State Government.

3. Consequently, we do not find any merit in the writ application. The same is dismissed.
