PRAMOD THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 10/01/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = W.P. (C) No. 1294 OF 2008 D = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 10th January, 2008 J U D G M E N T The challenge in this writ petition is against the 4th prize that was given to the petitioner in Duff Muttu in the District Level Youth Festival. The ground urged is that before the conclusion of the performance the curtain fell and that obstructed the petitioner's performance. This aspect has been considered by the appeal committee in Ext. P1 and the same has been rejected. On other grounds also the assessment of performance by the judges having been upheld by the appeal committee, I am not persuaded to take a view different from the appeal committee. This is all the more for the reason that the petitioner has not produced any material in support of the contentions raised. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE jan/-
