THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 08/12/2010,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: rs ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 36552 OF 2010 ===================== Dated this the 8th day of December, 2010 J U D G M E N T The prayer sought in this writ petition is for a direction to the authorities to postpone Kottayam Revenue District Education Sports Meet 2010-11, which is now scheduled to commence on 9th of December, 2010. The reason stated by the petitioners justifying the request is that the 2nd petitioner will have to participate in the 54th State School Basketball Championship. 2. In my view, such inconveniences of a student cannot justify the request for postponing the sports meet, which is now scheduled. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
