AI extract
What is this about?
In batch writ petitions challenging an order cancelling community certificates, this Court held that only the State Level Scrutiny Committee has authority to cancel such certificates. The District Collector lacked jurisdiction, as the mandatory procedure via G.O. dated 12.09.2007 was not followed. Consequently, the impugned orders were quashed.
What did the court decide?
The impugned order of cancellation of community certificates dated 10.10.2024 was quashed. The case was remanded to the State Level Scrutiny Committee for verification.
