DATE: 5TH MAY, 2011 P.C.:- Pursuant to our order dated 29th April, 2011, respondent No.2 has obtained opinion of second expert. The second expert has opined that the answer given by the petitioner to Question No. 119 was correct. 2. In the circumstances, the petitioner would be entitled for one additional mark besides 4 marks already awarded by respondent 2 26111 No.2 on its own, as is stated in paragraph 5(viii) of the affidavit. In other words, in the results declared, the petitioner has secured 141 marks, but, after adding 4 marks pursuant to the correction in respect of Questions No. 41, 48, 59, and 76, the petitioner would secure additional 4 marks, which will make his total tally to 145. As aforesaid, as the answer given by the petitioner in respect of Question No. 119 is also treated as correct, the petitioner would secure aggregate 146 marks. This position is accepted by the counsel for respondent No. 2. 3. Accordingly, respondent No. 2, through counsel, assures that it will process the claim of the petitioner along with other candidates similarly placed, who have secured cut-off marks of 146. That assurance is accepted. 4. In view of the above, nothing survives for consideration in this petition. The same is disposed of. MRS. MRIDULA BHATKAR, J. A.M. KHANWILKAR, J.
