RESPONDENT'S EXHIBITS: N I L /TRUE COPY/ P.A.TO JUDGE Kss P.N.RAVINDRAN, J. --------------------------- W.P.(C) No. 24530 OF 2011 -------------------------- Dated this the 7th day of September, 2011 J U D G M E N T The petitioner underwent the B.Tech degree course from Nehru College of Engineering and Research Centre, Pampadi, a college affiliated to the University of Calicut. He appeared for the 8th semester B.Tech degree examination in June, 2011. The results were published in the first week of August, 2011. The petitioner failed in the paper Quality Engineering and Management. He has therefore submitted Ext.P1 application dated 26.8.2011 seeking revaluation of the answer script in the said paper. The requisite fee of Rs.265/- was also paid. This writ petition is filed seeking expeditious revaluation of the answer script mainly on the ground that unless the revaluation is expeditiously conducted, the petitioner will be put to serious prejudice. 2. When this writ petition came up for hearing today, Sri. Santhosh Mathew, learned standing counsel appearing for the University of Calicut submitted that if the application submitted by the petitioner for revaluation is in order and the requisite fee WPC No.24530/2011 2 has been paid, the University will take steps to expeditiously revalue the petitioner’s answer script and to communicate the results to him. In such circumstances, I dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the respondents to take steps to have the petitioner’s answer script described in Ext.P1 application revalued and to communicate the results to him expeditiously and in any event within eight weeks from the date on which the petitioner produces a certified copy of this judgment before the Controller of Examinations, University of Calicut.
