TO JUDGE Rp ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 19363 OF 2010 ===================== Dated this the 7th day of December, 2011 J U D G M E N T Petitioner approached this Court on the commencement of the academic year 2010-11 mainly complaining about Ext.P4. Ext.P4 is an order issued by the Administrator of Lakshadweep framing the rules for selection of candidates for MBBS course against the seats reserved by the Kerala Government for the wards of malayalees living in Lakshadweep other than local inhabitants. This order provides for weightage of marks for the malayalee students having undergone schooling or study in the islands at the scale as indicated therein. Petitioner says that this order is in conflict with Ext.P2 issued by the Government of India, which is the rules for selection of candidates for MBBS seats allocated by the Government of India to Union Territory of Lakshadweep. 2. First of all, at this distance of time, the issue is purely academic. This is for the reason that admissions for the academic year 2010-11 are already over and the party respondents are already undergoing the courses. It is also disclosed that the WPC No.19363/10 :2 : petitioner has also joined Engineering College under the sponsorship of the Lakshadweep Administration. Therefore, at this distance of time, it is unnecessary for this Court to enter into the merits of this case. Writ petition is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
