IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA, CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.16233 of 2008 Date of Decision: May 07, 2009 Kamal Deep Kaur .....PETITIONER(S) VERSUS Haryana State Counselling Society, Panchkula & Another .....RESPONDENT(S) . . . CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA PRESENT: - Mr. Gaurav Singal, Advocate, for Mr. Sanjiv Gupta, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Sunil Nehra, Assistant Advocate General, Haryana, for the respondents. . . . AJAI LAMBA, J (Oral) It transpires that the petitioner sought admission in the Course of “Office Management and Computer Applications”. It seems that vide Order, Annexure P-1, the seat was allotted to the petitioner in Computer Engineering. The following are relevant contents of Annexure P-1 dated 12.7.2008:- “Haryana State Counseling Society (HSCS) is pleased to inform that based upon the available seats and choices filled/ submitted, following institution/Branch has been allotted to you on merit. Your admission will be subject to the verification of your certificates/ credentials, eligibility in the allotted institution and deposition of token admission fee through www.hscs.org.” CWP No.16233 of 2008 [2] Subsequently, the admission was cancelled, which action has been challenged by the petitioner in writ jurisdiction in this petition. Learned counsel for the respondents has pointed out that the petitioner appeared in Diploma Entrance Test [Diploma Engineering (Lateral Entry)] and secured 5505 rank. The petitioner was possessing the qualification of 10+2 (Vocational) (Office Secretary Ship Stenography English). Due to technical fault of the National Informatics Centre (NIC), the petitioner was allotted a seat in Computer Engineering Branch in Government Polytechnic for Women, Sirsa in first counselling on 12.7.2008. The allotment was only provisional. The technical error was detected and immediately on 13.7.2008, it was published that the petitioner did not fall in merit as per her qualification in the Course in which she had applied for. Learned counsel for the respondents has further clarified that the required qualification/ compatibility for the Course of Computer Engineering with ITI Courses is Computer Hardware Mechanic, Information Technology Equipment Services and Maintenance, Computer Operator and Programming Assistant, Electrician, Wireman, Computer Hardware Mechanic, Consumer Electronics, Electronics Mechanic, Information Technology Equipment Services and Maintenance, Mechanic (Radio & TV), Wireless Mechanic Operator, Instrumentation CWP No.16233 of 2008 [3] (COE), Information Technology & Electronics System and Instrument Mechanic. Admittedly, the petitioner was not qualified to have applied in Diploma in Computer Engineering. The detail of qualification/ compatibility for the course for which the petitioner had applied, have also been detailed in Para 2 of the preliminary objections. On consideration of the facts and contents of Annexure P-1, I find that no right is vested in the petitioner to claim admission in Diploma in Computer Engineering. Annexure P-1 was issued with inclusive conditions of eligibility. Clearly the petitioner was not eligible in the course in which, by error, she was admitted. The error had been corrected forthwith. No ground for interference in extraordinary writ jurisdiction is made out. The petition is dismissed. (AJAI LAMBA) May 07, 2009 JUDGE avin
