No.29932/2008-L ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dated this the 1st day of January, 2009 J U D G M E N T The writ petitioner has approached this Court aggrieved by the irregularities in the selection proceedings to the post of Judo Coach, initiated by the first respondent pursuant to Ext.P8 notification. Further prayer is made to consider the petitioner for appointment to the post of Judo Coach pursuant to the said notification after affording her an opportunity for practical test and interview. 2. The answer scripts were called for before this Court and have been perused by all the parties. It is submitted at the Bar that actually there are mistakes in counting the marks secured by the petitioner and, therefore, it is because of those mistakes that the petitioner was excluded from the selection to the post of Judo Coach. 3. In that view of the matter, the first respondent is directed to remedy the situation and thereafter consider the petitioner for selection process including practical test and interview after reckoning the marks which were not taken into consideration. W.P.(C) No.29932/2008 -:2:- 4. The steps as above directed will have to be completed within a period of one month from today. The answer scripts (three in number) which have been directed to be kept in safe custody as per order dated 07/11/2008, will be returned to the first respondent through its Standing Counsel forthwith. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) ms
