IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.288 of 2007 SHAILENDRA KUMAR Versus THE VEER KUNWAR SINGH UNIVERSITY & ORS. ----------- For the Petitioner : M/s Anil Kumar Singh & Subhash Kumar, Advocates For the University : Mr. Vinay Kirti Singh, Advocate ------------ 03/ 29.07.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the University. Petitioner had filled up the form for appearing in the entrance examination of B.Ed. course, 2006. Admit Card was issued to the petitioner for appearing in the said examination. From the Admit Card (Annexure-3) it appears that the centre was at H.D.Jain College, Arrah and the date and time shows that examination was to be held on 28.11.2006 at 11 A.M. to 1 P.M. Accordingly, he reached at the examination centre on 28.11.2006 in the morning when he was informed that the examination was held on 26.11.2006. Respondents have filed a counter affidavit, in which they have taken stand that the date was announced by the paper - 2 - notice also and, therefore, petitioner ought to have reached at the examination centre on 26th itself. The stand of the respondents is not acceptable to this Court. Since Admit Card was issued to the petitioner, it was very natural for the petitioner to accept the date of examination mentioned in the Admit Card as correct and, therefore, he had rightly reached at the centre on 28.11.2006. Clearly there was no fault on the part of the petitioner and it was due to wrong date mentioned in the Admit Card that he could not appear in examination. However, due to some reasons, the writ application could not be taken up earlier and now the B.Ed. course of 2006 is over. Although petitioner has filed this writ application for a direction to this Court to conduct special examination of B.Ed. course, 2006, but this Court is unable to hold such examination of B.Ed course, 2006 now. In that view of the matter, petitioner will be at liberty to appear in the entrance test for next course of B.Ed. to - 3 - be held by the University. The fee submitted by the petitioner for appearing in the entrance test earlier shall be adjusted against the fee required for filling up the form for the next entrance test of B.Ed course and he shall be allowed to appear in the entrance examination. With the above observations/ directions this writ application is disposed of. ( J. N. Singh, J. ) A.H.
