J U D G M E N T The petitioners against whom the enquiry has been initiated by the respondents on the allegation of suspected examination malpractice, have approached this Court complaining mainly of delay in finalising the proceedings. 2. The University submits that they have already constituted a committee and enquiry proceedings have commenced. Since the matter affects the future of the students, it is necessary that the University shall complete the proceedings expeditiously. The writ petition is therefore disposed of directing that the enquiry proceedings commenced shall be completed, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within six weeks from today. Needless to say, the petitioners will be permitted to defend their case and will be allowed to peruse the documents relied on against them. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE bkn/-
