GOVT6.PLEADER SRI.V.MANU THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 28/09/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 29793 OF 2010 (Y) ===================== Dated this the 28th day of September, 2010 J U D G M E N T The prayer sought in this writ petition is to direct the 2nd respondent to admit the petitioner to a seat in the MBBS Course in the colleges, which are members of the 2nd respondent Association. Going by the pleadings, it is seen that the petitioner responded to the notification issued by the 2nd respondent and her name was also included in Ext.P5 list. But her name was omitted in the final list for the reason that the fee and refundable caution deposit that was payable was not remitted by the petitioner before 5.00 p.m on 11/9/2010. On the other hand, it is submitted that the fee was received by the respondents only on 13/9/2010 by post. It was therefore that the petitioner's name was not included in the final list. 2. Although according to the petitioner, it was because of the intervening holidays that the delay has happened, fact remains that out of 331 students that were eligible, 253 students have remitted the fee within the time specified in Ext.P3 WPC No. 29793/10 :2 : Prospectus. In that view of the matter, I am not persuaded to direct the respondents to admit the petitioner as sought for. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
