IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.379 of 2009 SABEYA SEHRISH & ORS Versus THE UNION OF INDIA & ORS ----------- 2. 04.02.2009 Heard leaned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Counsel for the Rajendra Agriculture University as also the learned Counsel for the Union of India. The controversy in this case relates to admission to the Bachelors Degree Programme for the Academic Session 2008- 2009 in the discipline of B.V.Sc. & A.H. with regard to petitioner no. 1, B.Sc.(Agriculture) with regard to petitioner no. 2 and B.F.Sc. with regard to the petitioner no. 3. The Union of India is stated to have formulated a scheme for reservation of seats for Kashmiri students as a beneficial measure citing the difficulties faced by them in educational matters and admission, for reason peculiar to the State and need for their migration to other States. It is not in controversy that the seats with regard to Kashmiri Migrants has not been filled up by any other eligible candidates. That the petitioners claim to fulfill the conditions of eligibility and their applications have been received by the University also. The controversy seems to arise in absence of migration certificate from the concerned Zonal Officer of the State of J & K. The applications of the petitioners appear to have been forwarded by the concerned authorities at New Delhi acknowledged by the University which in its colunter affidavit contends that the petitioners had not submitted any direct application and that it was because of the absence of the zonal certificate in their applications that further directions had been sought by letter dated 19.12.2008 from the Union of India. Keeping in mind the beneficial nature of the policy framed for Kashmiri migrants, the availability of the seats in the reserved category meant for them, the statements in the counter affidavit of the respondent University that the Vice Chancellor was competent to grant admission, though for a limited period, after expiry of the last date, this Court considers it proper to direct in the peculiar facts and circumstances of the case that if the petitioners submit necessary migration certificate from the competent authority within a maximum period of two weeks the respondent University shall proceed to grant admission as no other infirmity for admission has been pointed out vis a vis the petitioners with regard to the condition of eligibility. The writ application stands disposed off. Snkumar/- (Navin Sinha,J.)
