Case Summary: WP 6128/2026 Ujwala Murlidhar Pawar v. State of Maharashtra & Ors. The Bombay High Court adjourned the case for further proceedings. The petitioner challenges a Scrutiny Committee order rejecting her Scheduled Tribe caste certificate. The court found the Committee may not have properly considered documentary evidence (petitioner's father's 1954 school certificate showing Thakkar caste, which was notified as ST only in 1977). The Committee must file its reply by June 12, 2026, petitioner's rejoinder by June 17, 2026, with hearing on June 22, 2026. The employer is restrained from taking coercive action pending resolution. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
