All India B.C./OBC Party, Rep., by its President, T. Danaiah, Ranga Reddy District.

... Petitioner And State of Telangana, rep., by its Chief Secretary, Hyderabad & others.

... Respondents This Court made the following:

THE HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SRI KALYAN JYOTI SENGUPTA AND THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION No. 19 of 2015 ORDER: (Per the Hon'ble the Chief Justice Sri Kalyan Jyoti Sengupta) It appears, bereft of all irrelevant facts stated in the writ petition, the sum and substance of the petitioner's grievance is that by G.O.Ms.Nos.4 and 14 dated 25.09.2014 and 21.10.2014 respectively the Government of Telangana has taken a decision to provide financial assistance to the unmarried girls for their marriage introducing the scheme of Kalyana Lakshmi Pathakam.

In this writ petition the petitioner claims that similar benefit should also be given to the unmarried girls of the Backward Class or Other Backward Class communities. We are of the view that it is an absolutely a Government policy with regard to disbursing of the funds and formulating of any scheme for any particular community, until and unless the same appears to be unconstitutional on the face of it. In this writ petition the petitioner has not challenged the aforesaid two Government orders. They want that similar benefit should be given to the aforesaid two classes of people. According to us, the petitioner must come to the Court with an enforceable legal right. With these Government orders the petitioner has no right for enforcement. Until and unless the Government decides to give any benefit to these classes of people and such benefit is not implemented, no legal action can be

taken.

We therefore dismiss the writ petition giving liberty to the petitioner to approach the appropriate authority claiming similar right. Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall also stand dismissed. No order as to costs.
