The Saibaba committee, which runs the trust in Shirdi, has been appointed by the Bombay high Court. For all major expenditure the trust needs the permission of the HC..

In the present application, the Bombay High Court has refused to allow an expenditure of Rs 14.94 lakhs incurred by Saibaba Sansthan Trust in Shirdi towards printing invitation cards and posting them to patrons for the Dussehra function.
The Aurangabad bench of justices A B Chaudhari and Indira K Jain of the Aurangabad bench of the High Court who heard an application filed by the Saibaba Sansthan Trust through its executive officer passed and order and observed “There is no point in spending huge amount as aforesaid (Rs 14.94 lakhs) towards item no 5 and 6 (printing of invitation cards and postage expenses) as given in the expenditure list by the Sansthan. Certainly, the said amount can be saved,” said the Judges in their order last week.
However, the bench noted that the expenditure of printing invitation cards and posting them to patrons was not required in these days of technological advancement, namely SMS, MMS, Internet, publication, television, etc.
The Court however, allowed expenditure in towards certain other details.
