1. Heard Shri. S. V. Tharkar holding for Shri. R. D. Karode, learned counsel for the petitioners.
2. The contention is that petitioner No.1 - Management has appointed petitioner No.3 - Employee in petitioner No.2 - Aashram Shala. Petitioner No.1 submitted a proposal for grant of approval to the appointment of petitioner No.3 to respondent No.2 - Assistant Director, Other Backward Classes Welfare, Yavatmal, on 28th August, 2023. However, even after the passage of more than three years now, the aforesaid proposal is not yet decided by respondent No.2. Hence, the petitioners have approached this Court.
3. Ms. H. N. Jaipurkar, learned Assistant Government Pleader, who appears on behalf of respondent Nos.1 and 2, submits that the authority to adjudicate upon such a proposal lies with respondent No.1 - Regional Deputy Director, Other Backward Classes Welfare (Regional) Department, Amravati. However, the 2026:BHC-NAG:13980-DB
107 WP-8646-2026.odt petitioners have wrongly submitted the aforesaid proposal to respondent No.2.
4. In view of the above, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners shall submit the aforesaid proposal afresh, after complying with all the necessary requisites, to the competent authority, i.e., respondent No.1. The aforesaid compliance shall be done within a period of one week.
5. In view of the above, we dispose of the present writ petition with a direction to respondent Nos.1 and 2, and more specifically, respondent No.1, to decide the aforesaid proposal, if submitted within a period of one week from today, within a period of six weeks from the date of submission of such proposal. Needless to mention that the aforesaid proposal shall be decided on its own merits and in accordance with law. The decision taken on such proposal shall be communicated to the petitioners within a period of two weeks from the date of such decision.
6. The present writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of. (RAJ D. WAKODE, J.) (URMILA JOSHI-PHALKE, J.) TAMBE Signed by: Mr. Ashish Tambe Designation: PA To Honourable Judge Date: 19/10/2026 10:30:20
