WP(C) 4909/2011 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE AMITAVA ROY Heard Mr. T Deuri, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. S Chakraborty, lea rned Standing Counsel, Gauhati University (for short hereafter referred to as th e respondent/University). The petitioner took admission in the three years law course at JB Law College, G uwahati in the year 2004. He appeared in the LLB Preliminary examination in the year 2005, and failed, but cleared it in the examination held in March, 2007. In cidentally, he passed the LLB Intermediate examination also in January, 2007. Ad mittedly, though, thereafter, he had appeared in the LLB Final Examination and a vailed four chances to clear the same, he had been unsuccessful. To be specific, he attempted to clear the final examination in the years 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2 010, but could not do so. In these circumstances, he is before this Court for re dress. In terms of the Gauhati University New Regulations for LLB Course in force at al l relevant times, a candidate is required to clear his/her LLB degree within fiv e years from the date of his/her first due examination in LLB Preliminary with t he rider that he he/she shall not be allowed to appear in more than three chance s in each LLB examination. The University vide an amendment effected by the noti fication dated 27th of September, 2007, had enhanced the number of chances afore mentioned from three to four in any of the two of the three LLB examinations. There is no wrangle at the Bar that the aforementioned provision of the Regulati on as modified by the notification dated 27.09.2007, is applicable to the petiti oner as well. As admittedly, the petitioner has availed all the four chances to clear the LLB Final Examination as noticed hereinabove, he, thus, is not entitle d to be accorded any other opportunity in terms of the aforementioned provisions governing the scheme of the LLB examination of the University. Though, Mr. Deuri, has laboured hard to impress upon this Court to effect a rela xation to these provisions, in my opinion, such a course is impermissible in law . In the above view of the matter and having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, the petition lacks in merit and, accordingly, is dismissed. No cos ts.
