Single Bench: Hon’ble Shri Dhirendra Misha, J. OR x AL ORDER (Paseed on 14‘9-2009) 1. The petitioners have iiled this petition and Qgved for direction to the respondents to allow the petitionér§"%f admission in the new institutions! Colleges in the Bilaspur city, which were re—aifiiiated after 2nd round of counseling. 2. The gzievance of the petitioners is that after succeeding in the B. Ed. Entrance Examination, the petitioners participated in the 2nd counseling conducted by respondent No.2 and were allotted admission p Barve @ , in diEmrcnt B. Ed. Colleges as mentionéd in the petition. Subsequent to holding of 2nd counseling, 16 new Institutions wem re-affih‘ated under Guru Ghasidas University and the candidates who were down below the men‘t list in the Entrance Examination Were allowed to change their option for admission even in those colleges which were subSequently affiliated. However, the petitioneis’ case for participaiing in the fresh counseling after re-aililiation of the above 16 colleges is not being considered. The petitioners are desirous of seeking admission in the colleges situated in the city of Bilaspur and in these circumstances, appropriate direction be issued to the respondents in this regard. . After hearing learned counsel for the petitioner, after considering the averments made in the petition and also considering the Pre-B. Ed. Entrance Examination Rules, 2009 (for short the ‘Rules, 2009’}, I am of the opinion that after participating in the counseling and after being admitted to one of the colleges, it is not open to the petitioners to change their option, as Rule 8 (E) of the Rules, 2009 under which counseling is held, stipulates that the option exercised by the selected candidate at the time of counseling is to be hnal and the same cannot be changed under any circumstances. Accordingly, the petition is dismissed. / Sd/— Dhirendra Mishra H Judge i
