PRAMOD THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 16/01/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = W.P.(C) No. 1946 OF 2008 F = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 16th January, 2008 J U D G M E N T Petitioner had participated in Thiruvathirakali and was given the 2nd prize with A grade. It is submitted that an appeal was filed, but the decision on the appeal has not been communicated. Counsel submits that one of the participants suffered an electric shock and the stage was not maintained in proper order and that resulted in the relatively inferior performance. 2. On instruction, the learned Govt. Pleader submits that the grounds in the appeal have been considered and rejected by the appeal committee. Petitioner has also not produced the memorandum of appeal and hence this Court is not in a position to ascertain what were the grounds urged in the appeal. In any case, having regard to the unanimity in assessment by the judges reported by the Govt. Pleader, I am not persuaded to accept the contentions that are now raised in this writ petition. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE jan/-
