LPA No. 564 of 2010 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH LPA No. 564 of 2010 Date of Decision: August 11, 2010 Amrita ...... Appellant Versus Panjab University and another ...... Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Mukul Mudgal, Chief Justice Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Tewari Present: Mr. Rajesh Bansal, Advocate for the appellant. Mr. Anupam Gupta, Advocate for respondent No.1. Mr. Sanjay Kaushal, Advocate with Mr. Sanjeev Ghai, Advocate for UT Administration. **** 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Mukul Mudgal, CJ(Oral): This appeal challenges the order dated 19.04.2010 passed by the learned Single Judge in CWP No. 16889 of 2009. The order passed by the learned Single Judge is based on the fact that the appellant has disclosed in her admission form submitted to the College that she has secured 486 marks out of 1200 but the College LPA No. 564 of 2010 2 inadvertently computed the marks as 486 out of 800 and treated her to be above the qualification required which were 50% of the marks in aggregate and in each paper. Admittedly the appellant had neither 50% marks in aggregate nor in each paper. During the pendency of this appeal, the appellant vide order dated 03.05.2010 was permitted to appear in the examination provisionally. Mr. Anupam Gupta, Advocate appearing for the University informed that out of 11 papers she appeared only in two papers and in those papers also she failed by a huge margin securing only 10 out of 80 and 18 out of 80 marks. Moreover, the learned Single Judge while castigating the College concerned has nevertheless held that the appellant did not fulfil the eligibility criteria. We see no reason to differ with the view taken by the learned Single Judge. In this view of the matter we find no reason to interfere with the findings given by the learned Single Judge. The appeal is accordingly dismissed. The order of the learned Single Judge regarding refund of the tuition fee shall be carried out not later than two weeks from today. The payment thereof may be made through the learned counsel for the petitioner. (MUKUL MUDGAL) CHIEF JUSTICE (AJAY TEWARI) JUDGE Augsut 11, 2010 sunita
