BY ADV. SRI.RANJITH XAVIER RESPONDENT(S): --------------- 1. UNIVERSITY OF CALICUT, REPRESENTED BY ITS REGISTRAR, UNIVERSITY.P.O., CALICUT-673635. 2. CONTROLLER OF EXAMINATIONS, UNIVERSITY OF CALICUT, UNIVERSITY.P.O., CALICUT-673635. MR.P.C.SASIDHARAN, SC FOR THE UNIVERSITY THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 29/10/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------ WP(C) No.32946 of 2010 (P) -------------------------- Dated, this the 29th day of October, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner obtained degree certificate from Mangalore University with Triple Main. Thereafter she joined the Calicut University for M.A. (English) and passed with third class. Later, she got admitted in the Arafa Institute of Teacher Education, Arafa Nagar, Attur, Thrissur for B.Ed course. The final year examination of the Course is to commence on 01/11/2010. Meanwhile, the University required the petitioner to produce an equivalency certificate. The petitioner thereupon submitted Ext.P4 application to the University for the certificate and the matter is pending before the University. It is complaining that the University has not issued the equivalency certificate, while at the same time, she is not issued the hall ticket for the examinations, the writ petition has been filed. 2. Learned standing counsel for the University points out that going by the Regulations of the University, the petitioner is an ineligible candidate. It is stated that it was therefore that they WP(C) No.32946/2010 -2- required the petitioner to produce the equivalency certificate. 3. However, as at present, fact remains that the petitioner had undergone the Course and the examination is to commence on 01/11/2010. Ext.P4 application made by the petitioner for equivalency certificate pursuant to the directions of the University to produce the same, is pending consideration of the University. At this stage, if for want of equivalency certificate, the petitioner is denied permission to appear for the examination, I feel it will be an injustice to the petitioner. 4. In that view of the matter, I dispose of the writ petition with the following directions:- That the University shall pass orders on Ext.P4 application made by the petitioner for equivalency certificate as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within four weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. In the meantime, the petitioner will be permitted to appear for the examination, which is to commence on 01/11/2010. It is made clear that the appearance of the petitioner is purely provisional, and her results will be declared only depending upon the orders to be passed by the University on Ext.P4 application, and WP(C) No.32946/2010 -3- if the University declines equivalency certificate, it shall not be necessary for the University to declare her results. The petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the 1st respondent, who shall thereupon issue hall ticket to the petitioner enabling her to appear for the examination, which is to commence on 01/11/2010, provisionally. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
