They were awarded third prize with A Grade. They filed an appeal and that was rejected by Ext.P2 order. Ext.P2 order is under challenge in this writ petition. 2. A reading of Ext.P2 order shows that the only ground urged was that the sound was low. Ext.P2 order shows that the same facility was available to all the participants. If that be the case, the petitioner cannot complain that any prejudice has been caused to the the petitioner. If that be so, this Court will have to go by the assessment of the performance of the petitioner's team by the Judges. Therefore, I am not inclined to interfere with the marks awarded.. Writ petition fails and it is accordingly dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE ma W.P (C) No. 2010 2
