No. 42/1980 was restored. The Petitioner had filed B.I.R. 42/1980 challenging the order of dismissal by the Respondent.3.

Reported in: 2001(1)BomCR696

A.M. Khanwilkar, J.1. Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith by consent.Heard both sides.In spite of notice and even after an opportunity for filing reply was granted to the respondents on the last occasion, no reply has been filed so far. The averments in the writ petition have, therefore, remained uncontroverted.2. The only question that arises in this writ petition is whether the Joint Transport Commissioner was right in rejecting the petitioner's application for issuing temporary permit to operate on Nagpur-Bhopal route for a period between 21st July, 2000 to 31st October, 2000. The Joint Transport Commissioner, while rejecting the said application, vide order dated August 8, 2000, preferred by the petitioner, observed thus :'In light of the above background the present application for issue of Temporary permit for a period 21-7-2000 to 31-10-2000 is being considered now perusal of the application shows that the main intention of the applicant is for issue of Temporary Permit pending...

Parvez Shah S/O Babullah Shah Vs. State of Maharashtra and ors.

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-14-2000

Reported in: 2001(2)BomCR208

A.M. Khanwilkar, J.1. Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith by consent.This petition takes exception to the order passed by the respondent No. 2 dated 19th August, 2000 invalidating the caste claim of the petitioner. The column for 'reasons' at No. 6 in the said order reads as under:'No information and clinching documents have been produced in support of the caste claim.'No other reason is indicated by the respondent No. 2 while invalidating the caste-claim of the petitioner. On the other hand, the petitioner had filed documents in support of the caste claim, efficacy of which has not been considered in the impugned order at all. This approach cannot stand the test of judicial scrutiny.2. It is, however, relevant to point out that this Court has observed that similar orders have been passed by the respondent No. 2 in other cases as well. The law as to the practice and procedure to be adopted by the Caste Scrutiny Committee is no more res-integra and well settled by catena of decisions o...
