He submits that if any application is submitted as provided under the Chhattisgarh Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes (Regulation of Social Status Certification) Act, 2013 and rules framed thereunder, it will be considered in accordance with law. 4. On due consideration of the submission made by learned counsel for the respective parties, in view of limited grievance raised by petitioner that the respondents authorities ar not issuing permanent caste certificate and further considering that there is no description of submission of any application for grant of permanent caste certificate nor any application is placed in this regard, I find it appropriate to disposed of this writ petition at this stage, 3 / 3 permitting the petitioner to submit fresh application in accordance with the Act of 2013 and rules framed thereunder and in turn the concerned authority shall consider and take decision on the application to be submitted by petitioner in accordance with law keeping in mind the documents to be enclosed by petitioner along with application. 5.
