The first petitioner is an educational institution imparting instructions in B. Ed. course. The grievance urged in the instant writ petition is that the fee reimbursement claim of the institution in respect of 6 students belonging to Scheduled Caste during Academic Session 2014-15 has not been allowed so far. It is pointed out that on 10.1.2017, District Social Welfare Officer, Meerut issued a circular letter calling for information on prescribed format from the educational institutions in respect of students, whose fee had not been reimbursed. The petitioners claim that in pursuance of the said circular letter, they have furnished the relevant information to the District Social Welfare Officer, Meerut on 6.10.2017. However, no action has been taken in the matter so far, and hence, the instant writ petition claiming a mandamus against the respondents for making good the claim of the petitioners for reimbursement.
