(Oral) The petitioner cannot be a judge in her own cause. The claim of the petitioner that she performed better than others is in the realm of self praise and as a judge in her own cause. The Judges who watched the performance of the petitioner came to a different conclusion. The person who stood first secured nine marks more than the petitioner. The ground pleaded by the petitioner that Judges would have no knowledge of the concerned competition does not impress us. We find no merit in this appeal. Dismissed.
