The results were published in August 2009. A mark list dated 21.8.2009 was thereupon issued. The first petitioner failed in three papers namely ”Quality Engineering Management”, “Two and Three Wheeled Vehicles” and “Automotive Pollution and Emission Control.” He has therefore applied for revaluation and scrutiny of his answer scripts by submitting Ext.P2 application dated 31.8.2009. It is stated that the requisite fee has also been paid. 2. The second petitioner appeared for the supplementary 5th semester B.Tech degree examination in Automobile Engineering conducted by the University of Calicut in December, 2008. The results were published on W.P.(C) No. 32524/09 2 9.10. 2009. The second petitioner again failed in two papers namely “Automotive Transmission” and “Production Technology”. He has therefore applied for revaluation and scrutiny of his answer scripts by submitting Ext.P5 application dated 15.10.2009. The petitioners submit that as they have completed their course of study it is only desirable that their answer scripts are revalued expeditiously. They also seek a direction to the respondents to arrange for scrutiny of their answer scripts. 3. Sri. P.C.Sasidharan, the learned standing counsel appearing for the University of Calicut submits that if the petitioners’ applications for revaluation are in order and the requisite fee has been paid, the University will take steps to revalue their answer scripts expeditiously. He also submits that the University will make arrangement for scrutiny of their answer scripts at the earliest. In the light of the said submission, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to take steps to have the petitioners’ W.P.(C) No. 32524/09 3 answer scripts described in Ext.P2 and Ext.P5 applications revalued and to communicate the results to them expeditiously and in any event within eight weeks from the date on which the petitioners produce a certified copy of this judgment before the Controller of Examinations, University of Calicut. The Controller of Examinations shall also make arrangement for scrutiny of petitioners’ answer scripts, if they have applied for scrutiny and paid the requisite fee, within ten days from the date on which the petitioners produce a certified copy of this judgment before him.
