The petitioner-institution has approached this Court seeking writ of mandamus or of certiorari directing Kurushetra University to grant affiliation to the petitioner-institution for the MBA course w.e.f. academic year 2008-09. The other prayers are also made for directing the University to issue detailed mark sheets to the students who appeared in the MBA 2nd semester exams conducted in May/June 2009 and also issue registration numbers to students of MBA course 1st semester for the year 2009-10. There is yet another prayer for directing University to issue roll number to the students of Civil Writ Petition No. 18091 of 2009 2 1st semester and 3rd semester course of MBA. By way of interim order, the students admitted to the institution were permitted to appear in 1st and 3rd semester course of MBA. The University has issued roll numbers and permitted the students to appear in the aforesaid examination provisionally. This interim order was subject to the conditions that this shall not create any right or equity in favour of the students and in favour of the petitioner-institution and shall remain subject to any order that may be passed by the Court. Subsequently, the University was directed to declare the result, which direction has been complied with. Mr. Rajiv Atma Ram, learned senior counsel refers to Annexure P-14 to say that only reason for which registration was returned to the institution was that the knowledge of want of affiliation letter from the University. Annexure P-14 would also show that the registration documents were returned with the request to re-submit the affiliation letter with University alongwith registration return documents. It was stated that without affiliation letter, registration return of the institution will not be accepted. Today, Mr. Gupta, learned senior counsel appearing for the University, has placed on record the letter addressed to institution for granting provisional affiliation for MBA course to the petitioner- institution. Copy of the letter is handed over in the Court and is kept on record. Since the return of registration documents were returned to the petitioner-institution for want of affiliation the requirement stands complied. The order deny registration may have to be considered again. The petitioner may take any appropriate action to send the registration return document so that the admissions made Civil Writ Petition No. 18091 of 2009 3 are regularized and also the result which has been declared is also regularized. The writ petition is disposed of. July 30, 2010 ( RANJIT SINGH ) rts JUDGE
