RESPONDENT'S EXHIBITS: NIL TRUE COPY P.A. TO JUDGE MM ANTONY DOMINIC, J ....................................................... W.P.(C).28102/2011 .............................................. Dated this the 21st day of October, 2011 JUDGMENT The challenge in this writ petition is against clause 6(ii)(d) of Ext.P1 prospectus for admission to Integrated Five Year L.L.B Course, 2011-12, which is extracted below. “No candidate shall be admitted to the Course unless he/she has passed the qualifying Examination with a minimum of 45% marks. However, candidates belonging to the Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes need only 40% marks in the qualifying examination.” 2. Even according to the petitioner, this prospectus was published in June, 2011 and the Entrance Examination was held on 31.7.2011. Thereafter, the rank list was also published and options were exercised by the concerned students, during October, 2011. It is thereafter, that at this belated stage, when allotment is to take place on 24.10.2011, this writ petition has now been filed seeking to challenge the aforesaid provision of the prospectus and that too, without impleading the students who are the beneficiaries of the prospectus. 3. In my view, the challenge against the prospectus is highly belated and at this distance of time, this Court will not be justified in W.P.(C).28102/11 2 entertaining the writ petition. That apart, the writ petition is bad for non joinder of necessary parties. It is accordingly dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, Judge mrcs
