         +0530        P.C. :

The petition is filed for simplicitor direction to decide the pending caste claim by the Scrutiny Committee expeditiously. This petition makes no reference to the pendency before the Scrutiny Committee. Petitioner's claim is of the year 2024. It is common knowledge that several caste claims are pending before the Scrutiny Committee including that of students, election disputes, and various urgent contingencies. A direction without reference to the pendency in an adhoc manner will be inequitable to those who are waiting and have not chosen to approach this Court. Such adhoc directions will open floodgates for similar such petitions. Therefore, we are not inclined to issue writ of mandamus merely because the Petitioner ::: Uploaded on - 28/08/2024 ::: Downloaded on - 28/08/2024 13:02:51 ::: LSP 2 14 wp 11904.24.doc seeks so, without any special circumstances for out of turn priority made out.

2. The learned counsel for the Petitioner states that notice has already been received for hearing before the Scrutiny Committee. This is another reason why no further directions are required.

3. Writ Petition stands disposed of.
