THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 08/07/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S. SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------ W.P.(C) No.21167 OF 2010 ------------------------------- Dated this the 8th day of July, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is an aspirant for admission to Post-Graduate Medical Course this year. She was ranked '2378' in the Entrance Examination. While she was preparing for participating in the counselling process for final allotment on 30.6.2010, she had a fall in the bathroom and therefore, she was incapacitated from attending the counselling process on 30.6.2010. Her claim now is that since there are vacant seats available, the respondents may be directed to re-open the allotment process and consider the petitioner's claim for admission. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. 3. The Supreme Court has already fixed the last date for admission to Post-Graduate Medical Courses this year as 30th June. After the last date for completing admissions, even if there are vacant seats available, no admissions can be made. That being so, this Court cannot direct the respondents to re-open the W.P.(c)No.21167/10 2 allotment and consider the petitioner for admission. The petitioner has to move the Supreme Court for such relief since only the Supreme Court can grant the relief prayed for by the petitioner. Therefore, there is no merit in the writ petition and accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE acd W.P.(c)No.21167/10 3
