They appeared for the 3rd semester examination held in November, 2010. The results were published in March 2011. The first petitioner failed in the subject “Electrical Technology”, the second petitioner failed in the subject “Electrical Circuit and System” and the third petitioner failed in the subject “Digital Electronics”. They have therefore applied for revaluation of their answer scripts by submitting Exts.P1, P2 and P3 applications dated 5.4.2011. The petitioners submit that they had done well in the examinations and that if their answer scripts are revalued, they are sure to secure a pass in the said subjects. It is stated that unless their answer scripts are expeditiously revalued, W.P(C).No.12840 of 2011 -:2:- they will be put to serious prejudice. In this writ petition the petitioners seek a direction to the respondents to expeditiously revalue their 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 petitioners' 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 them. 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 petitioners described in Exts.P1, P2 and P3 applications revalued and to publish the results expeditiously and in any event within eight weeks from the date on which the petitioners produce a certified copy of this judgment before the second respondent.
