SHAJI, SC, M.G.UNIVERSITY THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 19/12/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S. SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------------ W.P.(C)No. 20551 OF 2007 ---------------------------------------- Dated this 19th the day of December, 2007 JUDGMENT The petitioner is a final year student of Bio-Technology in CMS College, Kottayam under the Mahatma Gandhi University. The petitioner filed this writ petition at a time when the results of the examination conducted by the University for the year 2006- 2007 was yet to be published. The petitioner had appeared for the Entrance Examination in the Post-Graduate Course of M.Sc Bio-Technology in the same University. The last date for submitting mark list of the qualifying examination was 5.7.2007. The petitioner approached this Court because the petitioner could not obtain the mark list before that date. By order dated 4.7.07, I directed the University to ascertain as to whether the petitioner has passed the qualifying examination and if he has in fact passed the qualifying examination, to provisionally admit him subject to the result of the writ petition. 2. Now the University has filed a counter affidavit in which it is stated that the last date for submitting mark list was W.P.(c)No.20551/07 2 extended upto 6.8.2007. But the petitioner has not submitted the mark list and the interview for the M.Sc. Bio-Technology course was held on 5.9.07 and 6.9.07. The University submits that the petitioner was not eligible even to be considered for the interview as his marks for B.Sc Bio- Technology and Entrance test were very low when compared to the candidates who were called for the interview. In the above circumstances, there is no merit in the writ petition and accordingly the same is dismissed. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE Acd W.P.(c)No.20551/07 3
