Ms. Kalyani Marpakwar, AGP for respondent/State. CORAM: ANIL S. KILOR AND RAJNISH R. VYAS, JJ.

DATED : 17th OCTOBER, 2025.

The grievance raised in this petition is that the respondent no. 1 is not deciding the proceedings under Section 39(1)(i) of the Maharashtra Village Panchayats Act (for short, "M.V.P. Act"), despite the statute has made it mandatory to decide within a time bound manner. 2.

The prayers made in the petition are innocuous and accordingly, we are of the opinion that the petition can be disposed of with liberty to the respondent no. 1 to decide the proceedings under Section 29(1)(1) of the M.V.P. Act within four weeks from today.

3.

The learned counsel for the petitioner undertakes to communicate this order to the respondent no. 1 within one week.
