He appeared for the subjects “Computer Aided Design” of the 6th semester and “Silicates” of the 8th semester in the supplementary examination held in November, 2010. The results were published in March 2011. The petitioner again failed in the said subjects. He has therefore applied for revaluation of his answer scripts by submitting Exts.P1 and P1(a) applications dated 5.4.2011. The petitioner submits that he had done well in the examination and that if his answer scripts are revalued, he is sure to secure a pass in the said subjects. It is stated that the petitioner has completed the course of study and has passed all the other examinations and in such circumstances, unless his answer scripts are expeditiously revalued, he will be put to serious prejudice. In this writ petition he seeks a direction to the respondents to expeditiously revalue W.P(C).No.12919 of 2011 -:2:- his answer scripts and to publish the results. 2. Sri.T.A.Shaji, learned standing counsel appearing for the Mahatma Gandhi University, submitted that if the petitioner's applications for revaluation are in order and the requisite fee has been paid, the University will take steps to expeditiously revalue the answer scripts and communicate the results to the petitioner. In the light of the said submission I dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the respondents to take steps to have the answer scripts of the petitioner described in Exts.P1 and P1(a) applications revalued and to publish the results expeditiously and in any event within eight weeks from the date on which the petitioner produces a certified copy of this judgment before the fourth respondent.
