C.W.P. No.1662 of 2011 -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No.1662 of 2011 DATE OF DECISION : 28.4.2011 Surender Singh Taxak PETITIONER VERSUS Haryana Public Service Commission RESPONDENTS CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER Present:- Shri Gunjan Mehta, Advocate for the petitioner. Shri H.N.Mehtani, Advocate for the H.P.S.C. MAHESH GROVER, J. The answer-book produced in a sealed cover was perused and shown to the petitioner who is present in Court. All the answers have been evaluated with the marks indicated against the said answers. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that one part of the question at Sr.No.6 has not been evaluated. The petitioner has been awarded 16-1/2 marks for this question. It has been stated by the learned counsel for the petitioner that one part of Question No.6 which was announced later during the course of examination, has not been evaluated. The petitioner has been granted 11 marks as against Question No.6. Learned counsel for the petitioner on instructions C.W.P. No.1662 of 2011 -2- from the petitioner has conceded that even if marks were granted for the same, it would not have materially affected the result. This Court had noticed in the order dated 28.1.2011 that there was no provision with the H.P.S.C. to allow re-checking of the paper and in fact, this Court was not inclined to issue the process, but purely to satisfy the petitioner who stated that he had a brilliant academic record and has always secured 50% marks in Commerce and Accounting, this Court had decided to summon the answer-book of the petitioner. On due consideration of the matter when there is no noticeable flaw in the marking and the deviation in not evaluating a part of the question which deviation even if corrected, is not likely to affect the outcome of the result of the petitioner, I am of the opinion that no further interference is warranted. Consequently, the writ petition is dismissed. The amount of Rs.25,000/- already deposited by the petitioner with the Registrar of this Court be released to him.
