J U D G M E N T The petitioners are M.B.B.S students who were already completed the course. They want to write the final year examination. However, they could not do so, since they have not passed the previous examination in all subjects. The rule stipulates that a candidate can appear for final year examination only after passing the previous examination in full. The petitioners seek permission to write the final year examination subject to passing of 2nd year examination relaxing the rule. Petitioners now submit that they have filed Exts.P5 to P8 representations in the matter before the 1st respondent. They now confine their relief for a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Exts.P5 to P8 in accordance with law. 2. I have heard the learned standing counsel appearing for the University also. 3. In the facts and circumstances of the case, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the petitioners' claim, I W.P.(C).No. 17104 OF 2008 2 direct the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Exts.P5 to P8 representations in accordance with the rules, as expeditiously as possible before 20th June, 2008.
