W.P.(C).32615/2011 .............................................. Dated this the 16th day of December, 2011 JUDGMENT Petitioner was a B.Tech student in Musaliyar College of Engineering and Technology, Pathanamthitta. His 8th semester examination result was withheld on the allegation that he was involved in a case of ragging. Subsequently, on conclusion of the proceedings, examination itself was cancelled. However, the complainant who alleged that the petitioner ragged him, himself withdrew the complaint. On that basis, seeking cancellation of the decision of the Vice Chancellor, Ext.P8 representation was made by the petitioner's father followed by Ext.P9 by the petitioner himself. Decision on Ext.P8 or Ext.P9 were not taken. That led the petitioner to file this writ petition. 2. Today, when the matter came up for admission, learned Standing Counsel appearing for the University confirms of having received Ext.P8 and it is submitted that remarks of the Principal of the College, along with a copy of the police report, has been sought and is awaited. From the submissions thus made by the learned Standing Counsel, it is seen that on receipt of the W.P.(C).32615/11 2 representations, action is being taken by the Vice Chancellor. Therefore, no positive directions are called for. 3. In the above view of the matter, I direct that the Vice Chancellor will expedite his decision so that, a finality could be given to the petitioner's request. This the Vice Chancellor shall do as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within six weeks of production of a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, Judge mrcs
