dated 26th July, 2016, rendered by the Division Bench of this Court in Writ Petition No.7669 of 2016 (Rajesh Nimba Wagh vs. Scheduled Tribe Certificate Scrutiny Committee, Nashik & anr.), copy of which is placed on record at Exh.”F”. Mr Deshmukh then submitted that the petitioner herein is similarly circumstanced with Rajesh Nimba Wagh, petitioner in Writ Petition No.7669 of 2016 and identical facts are involved in both the petitions. In the matter of Rajesh Nimba Wagh also, the Committee had passed a conditional order. He refers to a decision of the Division Bench of this Court (Coram : R.M. Borde & K.L. Wadane, JJ.) dated 26th July, 2016 and submits that considering the very fact-situation and by observing that the petition filed by Shri Baburao Shinde is allowed by this Court, the decision of the Scrutiny Committee dated 29th May, 1999, impugned in the said petition, was quashed and set aside and the Scrutiny Committee was directed to issue validity certificate in favour of the petitioner. It would also be useful to refer to further observations of the Division Bench that the decision rendered by the Division Bench has attained finality since no further proceedings are taken up to challenge the decision of the High Court. Thus, Mr Deshmukh submitted that as the petitioner herein is similarly circumstanced with Rajesh Nimba Wagh, the petition be allowed on the line of the directions of this Court in judgment dated 26th July, 2016.
