DILIP MOHAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 18/01/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Kss ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````` W.P.(C) No. 1684 of 2011 I ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Dated this the 18th day of January, 2011 J U D G M E N T Petitioner is the Headmistress of a school. It appears that teams from their school participated in 'Arabanamuttu' and 'Dafmuttu' competitions held in connection with the Kollam Revenue District School Kalolsavam. In these two competitions, petitioner's teams secured 2nd prize with 'A Grade'. Aggrieved by the prizes awarded, appeals were filed. Although appeal memoranda have not been produced in the writ petition, Exts.P3 and P6 orders rejecting the appeals have been placed on record. 2. As far as Ext.P3 concerning 'Arabanamuttu's is concerned, the contention raised was that the performance of the 1st prize winner's team was not superior and that one of the Judges deliberately gave higher marks to the first prize winner team. First of all, the petitioner has not disclosed any particulars as to who is the particular Judge against whom W.P.(C) No.1684/2011 : 2 : allegations are made nor has the petitioner disclosed the details of the disproportionate marks allegedly given. Therefore, this vague allegation raised by the petitioner is unworthy of acceptance. As far as the performance of the first prize winner team is concerned, apart from that the petitioner raised allegations, here again, there is no material produced to substantiate it. In such circumstances, necessarily this Court has to go by the assessments made by the Judges. 3. In so far as Ext.P6 order rejecting the appeal filed by the petitioner concerning 'Dafmuttu' is concerned, here again, an allegation which is equally vague as above has been raised against one Judge which has to be rejected and I do so. There is a further allegation that the space provided in the stage was inadequate for the participants to perform. Even if this allegation is factually correct, since all the participants have performed in the very same stage, all the teams would have had the same alleged difficulties. W.P.(C) No.1684/2011 : 3 : Therefore, no prejudice special to the petitioner could have been caused. Writ petition fails and it is dismissed. Sd/- (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) aks // True Copy // P.A.
