The results were published in August, 2009. The petitioner failed in one paper. He has therefore applied for revaluation of his answer script by submitting Ext.P1 application dated 14.9.2009. It is stated that the requisite fee has also been paid. The petitioner submits that he has completed his course of study, that he has passed all the other semester examinations and that if his answer script is revalued, he is sure to secure a pass. He submits that in such circumstances, unless his answer script is expeditiously revalued, he will be put to serious prejudice. In this writ petition, the petitioner seeks a direction to the respondents to revalue the answer script described in Ext.P1 application and to communicate result to him expeditiously. 2. Sri.T.A.Shaji, the learned standing counsel appearing for the Mahatma Gandhi University, submits that if the W.P.(C).31200/09 2 petitioner's application is in order and the requisite fee has been paid, the University will take steps to revalue his answer script and to communicate the result expeditiously.
