W.P.(C).13000/2009 ....................... Dated this the 21st day of May, 2009 JUDGMENT Petitioners, while prosecuting the 7th semester B.Tech examination in the college of the third respondent, were proceeded against on the ground that they had indulged in malpractice during the conduct of the 7th semester examination. They were debarred from further participating in the said examination. Proceedings have not been finalized so far. Petitioners have approached this Court seeking a direction to the University to permit them to participate in the 8th semester examination. 2. Since there was a bar against participation in the 7th semester examination, petitioners could not have aspired for participating in the 8th semester examination. Learned Standing Counsel Mr.T.A.Shaji submits that the disciplinary proceedings against the petitioners will be finalized within six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy W.P.(C).13000/2009 2 of the judgment. Submission is recorded. No further directions are called for in the writ petition and the same is closed. V.GIRI, Judge mrcs
