Learned counsel for petitioner submits that the list annexed to the notice shows that the action is proposed to be taken in respect of such schools whose students' strength has been found to be less than 50% during special drive. He, therefore, apprehends that he may have to face criminal prosecution, which according to him is not possible having regard to observations in paragraph no. 48 of decision of division bench of this court dated 24-10-2013 in writ petition no. 4168 of 2012. 3.
The notice directs action pursuant to the enactments referred to therein. In case, only on the basis of students' strength being less than 50%, criminal prosecution is sought against the petitioner, petitioner may take up the defence, as would be available and deemed appropriate. We are not inclined to entertain the writ petition only on the basis of apprehension being entertained by petitioner.

Writ petition, therefore, is not being entertained and is disposed of.
