He is to write the examination which is to commence in March, 2008 and he requested for special assistance for the IED students, since is having learning disability. It is stated by the petitioner that he has not been included in the A list which is sent by the 2nd respondent to the Commissioner for Government Examinations, the 1st respondent in this writ petition. According to the petitioner, if he is not so included in the A list he will not be in a position to appear for the examination. 2. Though instructions have been obtained by the learned Govt. Pleader, there is no convincing reason for the exclusion of the petitioner, he having satisfied all other eligibility that is required to W.P.(C) No. 6344 OF 2008 - 2 - be satisfied. In view of this, considering the peculiar facts, I dispose of this writ petition directing that the petitioner shall be permitted to write the ensuing SSLC examination, with special assistance for the IED students. It is also directed that for this purpose, if the 2nd respondent is required to complete any procedural formalities he shall comply with the same on the production of a copy of this judgment. 3. I also record the submission of the learned Govt. Pleader that necessary instructions will be given to the Commissioner for Government Examinations for issuing register number to the petitioner in order to enable him to participate in the examination as directed above. It is further directed that the appearance of the petitioner in the practical examination pursuant to the order dated 25.2.2008 will also be treated as regular. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE jan/-
