¶12

Vide the present petition, the petitioner/institute has prayed for a direction to respondent nos.3 & 4 to grant approval to the faculty list prepared by the petitioner under clause 7 (13) of NCTE Regulations, 2014 expeditiously within a period of seven days to enable the respondent no.2 to examine the same and grant formal recognition for the academic session 2018-19 before the prescribed cut off date of 03.03.2018.

¶13

Notice in this petition had been issued by order dated 05.02.2018. Today, Mr.Deepak Thukral, learned counsel appearing for the respondent nos.3 & 4 submits that though they have received the application on behalf of the petitioner seeking approval of its faculty, the respondents have not been able to take a decision thereon due to paucity of time. He, however, submits that keeping in view the urgency in the matter and the decision dated 20.09.2010 of this Court

¶14

in W.P.(C)No.6221/2010 , he has instructions to state that the respondent nos.3 & 4 would do the needful after examining the faculty list provided by the petitioner within a period of seven days.

¶15

In view of the fact that respondent nos.1 & 2 have already taken a considered decision, that the cases where applications were submitted before the imposition of ban by the State Government, the same would be considered irrespective of the ban imposed by State of Haryana, it is made clear that the respondent nos.3 & 4, while considering the application of the petitioner would not reject the same on the ground that there is a ban by the State of Haryana on the opening of new institutes.

¶16

The petition is accordingly disposed of alongwith pending application, with a direction to respondent nos.3 & 4 to consider the faculty list provided by the petitioner, and if in order approve the same within seven days.

¶17

It is further directed that the decision on the applications would be expeditiously communicated to the petitioner as well as respondent nos. 1 & 2, so as to enable the said respondent nos. 1 & 2 to process the petitioner’s application before the cut off date of 03.03.2018.
