Bombay High Court

VAISHALI EKNATH WAHOOL AND OTHERSversusTHE STATE OF MAHARASHTRA THROUGH ITS SECRETARY AND OTHERS

Disposal: DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The writ petitions are dismissed as the issues are squarely covered by earlier decisions of this Court and the Nagpur Bench.

Summary

The petitioners filed multiple writ petitions and civil applications challenging actions of the State of Maharashtra and other respondents. The petitioners failed to appear before the Court on the scheduled dates. The Court noted that the issues raised were already decided in Writ Petition No.13945/2025 of this Court and Writ Petition No.6482/2024 of the Nagpur Bench. Relying on those precedents, the Court dismissed all the pending writ petitions without awarding costs. No further relief was granted to the petitioners.

PER COURT:

1.    When these matters were called out on previous date i.e. on

that the issue raised in these petitions is squarely covered by the

decision of this Court in Writ Petition No.13945/2025 and by the

Nagpur Bench in writ petition No.6482/2024. However, since learned

advocate for the petitioners was not available on that date, the matters

were adjourned for today for disposal.

2.    Today when the matters were called out in the morning session
                                 3                        903.WP.11911.25.odt

none appears for the petitioners and the matters were kept back.

None appears for the petitioners even in the second session.

3.        The issue raised in this petitions is squarely covered by the

decision of this Court mentioned in the earlier paragraph. For the

reasons stated in the said order, the writ petitions are dismissed. There

shall be no order as to costs.
