R1 BY ADV. SRI.P.C.SASIDHARAN, SC, CALICUT UTY. THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 06/09/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: SVS/ ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````` W.P.(C) No. 24701 of 2010 K ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Dated this the 6th day of September, 2010 J U D G M E N T On the strength of Exts.P1 to P6, the petitioner submits that he was a member of the Calicut University for Base Ball and Lawn Tennis. He sought admission in the second respondent College for M.Sc. Chemistry in the sports quota. By Ext.P7 communication, the College sought the sanction of the third respondent for admitting the petitioner in an additional seat. However, the University issued Ext.P9 communication stating that the petitioner is ineligible. 2. Referring to Ext.P8, the norms prescribed by the University, the petitioner contends that he having been included in the University Team, should be treated as having “representing the University” and on that basis, should have been granted admission. 3. However, as rightly pointed out by the standing counsel of the University, though the petitioner was included in the teams of the University, the University did not depute the team for any match and, therefore, the petitioner did not represent the WPC.24701/10 : 2 : University to be eligible for the benefit of Ext.P8. However, fact remains that the petitioner is only seeking for additional seat in M.Sc. Chemistry in the sports quota and that there is no rival claimant for the said seat. 4. In such circumstances, I direct that the request of the petitioner for admission shall be considered by the Syndicate of the first respondent University and a decision as to whether he could be accommodated in the second respondent College will be taken. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, particularly for the reason that the classes have already started. 5. The petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the first respondent for compliance. The writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) aks // True Copy // P.A.
