(ORAL) The petitioner prays for issuance of a writ in the nature of mandamus, directing the respondents to admit the petitioner to the M.Sc.(Nursing) Course against one of the two seats reserved for teaching staff of University College of Nursing/State Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences, Badal. Counsel for the petitioner submits that as the petitioner has passed B.Sc.(Nursing) Course and is eligible, she should have been selected against one of the two posts reserved for teaching staff of University College of Nursing/State Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences, Badal. Counsel for the respondents submits that as Ms.Sulekha, a candidate higher in merit than the petitioner has already been selected against the second seat, the petitioner's plea should be rejected. I have heard counsel for the parties. Even if entitled to consideration against two seats, raised for the University College of Nursing/State Institute of Nursing and Paramedical Sciences, Badal, the petitioner is not entitled to any relief as the candidate, higher in merit has been allotted the second seat.
