Not on Board. Mentioned. Taken on the Production Board. In the light of the clarificatory letter from the Directorate of Technical Education addressed to all the Divisional Offices in the State of Maharashtra, namely, at Mumbai, Pune, Nashik, Aurangabad, Amravati and Nagpur, none of the recognized Institutions shall insist on production of the validity certificate.

In the circumstances, the insistence in this case by Respondent No.3/ Engineering College is contrary to this directive. We, therefore, direct Respondent No.3/ College to abide by the directives from the Director of Technical Education dated 19.07.2017 and permit the Petitioner to continue studies.

The Writ Petition is, accordingly, disposed of. kps (SANGITRAO S. PATIL, J.) (S.C. DHARMADHIKARI, J.)
