Reported in: 2002(1)AWC520; (2002)2UPLBEC1130

M. Katju and S. K. Singh, JJ.1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri Ravi Kant for the respondent.2. Sri Ravi Kant raised a preliminary objection that this writ is not maintainable as the respondent No. 1 is a private body and is not an Instrumentality of the State. We agree with this preliminary objection. In our opinion, the respondent No. 1 is a purely private body. Ordinarily no writ lies against a private body except a writ of habeas corpus. We are of the opinion that the respondent No. 1 is not an instrumentality of the State and hence no writ petition lies against it. Learned counsel for the petitioner relied on a Division Bench decision of this Court in Vijay Narayan Ojha, 2001 (2) AWC 1071 : 2001 (43) ALR 276. In our opinion, this decision is clearly distinguishable. No doubt in some exceptional cases, a writ lies againsta private body on which some public duty has been imposed by the statute. In our opinion, the respondent No. 1 is not performing any public duty. ...
