B.N. Deshmukh, J.1 These petitions are filed by the students who were admitted by different institutions who were not granted recognition by the Government of Maharashtra.

Apart from this, a communication is also addressed to the management by Exhibit F-1 dated 1-2-1989 (in Writ Petition No. 489 of 1989) that the management will be prosecuted for admitting students illegally without obtai...
