THE COMMISSIONER FOR ENTRANCE EXAMINATIONS, HOUSING BOARD BUILDING SANTHI NAGAR, THIRUVANANTHAPURAM-695 001. GOVT.PLEADER SRI.P.NARAYANAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 28/01/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 2896 OF 2011 ===================== Dated this the 28th day of January, 2011 J U D G M E N T Petitioner is a Staff Nurse at the Primary Health Centre, Navaikkulam in Thiruvananthapuram District. She desires to get admission for MBBS under the special reservation category. In the previous year, she was an applicant, but however, she was denied admission for the reason that she did not secure 50% marks for Papers I and II in the Medical Entrance Examination. For that reason, the writ petition filed by her was also dismissed as per Ext.P7 judgment. It is thereafter that this writ petition has been filed challenging the prescription of 50%. Ext.P5 is the prospectus. Clause 5. 2 (i) of the prospectus itself show that 50% restriction has been imposed by the 1st respondent based on the directives of the Medical Council of India. The fact that there is a directive of the MCI is not a matter of dispute and there is no challenge against such a directive. If that be so, the requirement of 50% imposed in Ext.P5 cannot be said to be illegal for any reason. I am not inclined to interfere. Writ petition is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
