IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.14996 of 2011 Angad Kumar, son of Jyotish Prasad Singh, resident of Mohalla – Adarsh Colony Madhubani Purnea, Police Station – K. Hatt, District – Purnea. Versus 1. The B.N. Mandal University through its Vice Chancellor, Laloo Nagar, Madhepura. 2. Vice Chancellor, B N Mandal University, Laloo Nagar, Madhepura. 3. Registrar, B N Mandal University, Laloo Nagar, Madhepura. 4. Controller of Examination, B N Mandal University, Laloo Nagar, Madhepura. 5. Officer on Special Duty, Technical, B N Mandal University, Laloo Nagar, Madhepura. 6. Millia Institute of Technology through its Director Rambagh, Purnea. 7. Director, Millia Institute of Technology, Rambagh, Purnea. ----------- 02. 15.9.2011 Petitioner wants a mandamus upon the respondent authorities allowing him to appear in 3rd year final examination of engineering along with remaining papers of 2nd year examination. In the background the petitioner was admitted in the 3rd year, allowed to sit in the classes of 3rd year since result of the previous year had not been announced as yet and now petitioner has failed in some papers of 2nd year, he is being denied permission to sit in the examination for the 3rd year. Since in many other similarly situated matters, other petitioners have been granted the benefit as would be evident from the orders passed by the High Court in Annexure-2 series, there is no reason why the petitioner should not be given the benefit of similar kind in this case. The writ application is disposed of with a direction 2 upon the University authorities including Millia Institute of Technology that petitioner would be permitted to sit in the 3rd year final examination of engineering along with the papers of 2nd year in which he has not qualified. Writ is allowed. rkp ( Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
