    Case Summary: WP/3152/2026 The Nagpur High Court allowed a writ petition by 17-year-old Vedanti Dharne seeking issuance of a 'Mana' Scheduled Tribe caste certificate. The court found the Sub-Divisional Officer's demand for additional documents (Family Tree and Home Enquiry Report) was without jurisdiction, as the petitioner had already submitted sufficient supporting documents including her father's Form C certificate, School Leaving Certificate, and a Birth Register Extract dating to 1923. The court quashed the Officer's communication dated 25.03.2026 and directed issuance of the caste certificate within three weeks. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
