Since the issue involved in the writ petitions is identical, they are heard together and are decided by this common order.
By these writ petitions, the petitioners seek a direction to the respondents to forthwith release the grant-inaid due and payable to the petitioners for running the Balgruhas in district Washim.
Mrs. Deshpande, the learned Assistant Government Pleader appearing for the respondents, states
wp581, 651, 807.16, 2/2 that the amount that is due and payable to the petitioners, till April, 2015, would be paid to the petitioners, within a short time. It is stated that after 2015, there is change in policy and appropriate steps would be initiated to consider the question of releasing the grant-in-aid for the period from 2015-16 as per the change in policy. It is stated that due to paucity of funds, the grant-in-aid that was liable to be paid, till April 2015, could not be released.
In the circumstances of the case, since the payment of the grant-in-aid to the petitioners is not disputed by the respondents, till April, 2015, we dispose of the writ petitions by directing the respondents to release the grant-inaid, till 2015 to the petitioners, within a period of ten weeks. Order accordingly. No costs.
