I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondents. Learned Government Pleader, on instructions, stated that wide publicity was given in both print and visual media that the last date of receipt of objections on initial key is 9.6.2009 (up to 5.00 PM). It is further submitted that all the objections received within that date were duly considered and final key was released on 12.6.2009 itself. Admittedly, the petitioner made his objections on 15.6.2009, long after the last date fixed for submitting the objections. In the circumstances, the alleged inaction on the part of the respondents is without any basis. There are no merits in the writ petition. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. _____________ G. ROHINI, J Dt.26.06.2009 RAR THE HON'BLE Ms. JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO : 12614 of 2009 DATED : 26-06-2009
