CORAM: S.C. DHARMADHIKARI AND MANGESH S. PATIL, JJ.

DATE :- 10th July, 2017 P.C.:

The Petitioner's claim is pending with the Scrutiny Committee. The Petitioner claims to be belonging to "Thakur", Scheduled Tribe.

After having heard the learned Advocates for sometime, we direct the Scrutiny Committee to scrutinize and verify the claim of the Petitioner as expeditiously as possible and within a period of SIX MONTHS from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Until the Scrutiny Committee decides the claim referred to it and renders it's decision, Respondent Nos.2 and 3 shall not take any coercive action, if not already taken, against the Petitioner including canceling his admission, on the ground that the Petitioner has failed to produce the caste/ tribe validity certificate. However, no equities can be claimed by the Petitioner on the strength of this direction. The Writ Petition is disposed of in these terms. kps (MANGESH S. PATIL, J.) (S.C. DHARMADHIKARI, J.)
