THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.19243 of 2005 Date:31.08.2005 Velumala Ramya --------PETITIONER The Director, The Directorate of Admissions, Post Graduate Entrance Test-2005, Near Univery Press & Publications, Osmania University, Hyderabad and another. ---------RESPONDENTS ORDER: The petitioner appeared in the Entrance Examination held on 07.06.2005 for admission into I-Year of M.Sc., (Chemistry). She secured 595th rank in the Entrance Examination. By the time she applied for the Entrance Test, her results in B.Sc., Final Year were not announced. They were announced on 01.06.2005 and it was declared that the petitioner failed in Physics-IV Paper and Chemistry-III Paper of B.Sc. Final Year. In view of this fact, the petitioner was not permitted to participate in the counselling. She stated that she submitted an application for revaluation of the answer scripts of the subjects, in which she was declared fail, and ultimately, it emerged that she passed in them. The grievance of the petitioner is that when she approached the respondents to consider her case for admission into I-Year M.Sc.,(Chemistry) in view of the subsequent development, no steps were taken. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that whatever may have been the justification for the respondents in not considering the case of the petitioner before the revaluation was done, once it had emerged that the petitioner possessed the requisite qualification and secured a competitive rank in the Entrance Examination, she ought to have been admitted. The learned Standing Counsel for the respondents, on instructions, submits that by the time the petitioner was declared pass in B.S.C. Final Year Examinations after revaluation, the counseling as well as admissions into M.Sc., (Chemistry) were completed. The petitioner had to suffer on account of certain events. By the time she applied for the Entrance Test, her results in the B.Sc. Final Year were not announced. It so happened that she was declared fail in the Degree Examinations, but secured a competitive rank in the Entrance Test. It is true that in the revaluation, she was declared to have passed in the Degree Examinations. However, by that time, the admissions are said to have been completed. Therefore, no specific relief, as such, can be granted to the petitioner. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of directing that in case, any resultant vacancies arise in M.Sc (Chemistry) I-Year Course in the near future, the case of the petitioner shall be considered for admission, on the basis of her rank and subject to other criteria of eligibility. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 31.08.2005 Note: Issue C.C. by 02.09.2005 (B/o) Jsu
