A division bench of Chief Justice Mohit Shah and Justice Anoop Mohta heard a petition by advocate Machindra Patil for direction to the state to allow a private panel comprising five members to visit the drought hit area as observers. Patil's advocate Satish Borulkar said the state has spent Rs 1,354 crore on relief operations for cattle fodder and water tankers and plans to spend Rs 1,000 crore more.
"There has to be a civil society committee to observe if it has been properly disbursed. The team will work as a watchdog," he added, saying that the panel will not hamper relief work and will not be a financial burden. Retired HC judge Balchandra Vagyani is also part of the panel along with Patil, Borulkar, an MLA and a journalist.
The judges asked why the panel required a court order and could not approach the government directly. Borulkar said the government had not replied to their representation. "It does not want to create a parallel machinery. But where is the existing machinery?" asked Borulkar. A government's advocate said it is a policy matter and the petitioner must make a representation to the court. The judges told the government to file its reply and posted the next hearing on April 3, 2013.
