THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.19782 OF 1999 05.07.2006 Between: P.Vijay, S/o.P.S.Sai … Petitioner AND The Registrar, Osmania University, Hyderabad And others … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.19782 OF 1999 ORDER: The petitioner at the relevant time was student of III year Engineering course in the third respondent College. He was not promoted to IV year for the academic year 1999-2000. Therefore, the present writ petition is filed seeking a direction to the respondents to promote the petitioner to IV year. Though the writ petition was admitted on 10.12.1999, this Court did not pass any interim order. The Secretary of Sultan Ul Uloom Educational Society, the parent body of the third respondent College, filed counter affidavit. It is stated that as the petitioner did not complete all the papers upto III year and had backlog of nine papers, as per the relevant course regulation, he was not promoted to the IV year. The writ petition is also based on the ground that when IV year course is already commenced, the petitioner approached the third respondent with three months delay. The writ petition was filed in 1999 and that there was no interim order. Therefore, if at this point of time, this Court gives any direction, it would cause hardship to the petitioner as well as the respondents. Further, when as per the course regulation the candidate is required to clear all papers upto III year before such candidate is promoted to IV year, any candidate who is not completed all the papers upto III year cannot be promoted to IV year. The writ petition is therefore misconceived and is, accordingly, dismissed. No costs. ______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) July 05, 2006 YS
