Petitioner seeks permission to participate in the Oppana Competition in the 49th Kerala State Youth Festival which is scheduled to be held on 31.12.2008. Learned Government Pleader submitted that there is a difference of 14 marks between the petitioner and the person who stood as first. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the appeal was disposed of without hearing the petitioner and there was a real show of bias by the judging committee also. I may not be justified in sitting in appeal over the decision of the Appellate Authority which is not vitiated by any irregularity. The writ petition fails and accordingly it is dismissed.
