No. 32226 OF 2009 = = = = = = = = = = = = = == = = = = = = = Dated this the 20th day of November 2009. JUDGMENT The petitioners appeared for the 3rd year B.Pharm degree examination conducted by the University of Calicut in April 2008. They failed in various papers. They appeared for the supplementary examination conducted in January 2009. The results of the said examination was published on 19.06.2009. The petitioners again failed in some papers. They have therefore applied for revaluation of their answer scripts. Though copies of the applications for revaluation are not produced, the chalan numbers of the receipts evidencing payment of the fee for revaluation are set out in Para 4 of the writ petition. The petitioners state that they have completed their course of study, that they have appeared for the final year examination and that they are sure to secure a pass if their answer scripts are revalued. The petitioners further submit that if they pass the third year examination on revaluation, they can seek employment after the final year results are published. On these W.P.(C). No. 32226 OF 2009 2 grounds, the petitioners seek expeditious revaluation of their answer scripts. 2. Sri. P.C.Sasidharan, the learned standing counsel appearing for the University of Calicut submits that applications for revaluation have been received from the petitioners and that the University will take expeditious steps to revalue their answer scripts and to communicate the result to them. In the light of the said submission and the fact that nearly five months have passed after the petitioners applied for revaluation, I dispose if this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to take steps to have the petitioners answer scripts of the 3rd year B.Pharm degree examination held in January 2009 revalued and to communicate the result to them expeditiously and in any event within six weeks from the date on which the petitioners produce a certified copy of this judgment before the first respondent.
