Course. Petitioner submits that although initially Ext.P1Degree was not considered as equivalent by the University, subsequently she was granted admission on a provisional basis and that she is undergoing the course on that basis. It is stated that by the eligibility certificate issued on 14.2.2008, the University has certified that Ext.P1 Degree possessed by her is recognised as equivalent to B.A. Degree in Sanskrit prescribed by the University. On the strength of this certificate dated 14.2.2008, petitioner contends that the admission granted to her should be regularised. 2. Now that an eligibility certificate issued by the University has been relied on by the petitioner, it is for the 4th respondent to pass consequential orders considering the eligibility certificate now relied on by the petitioner. WP(C) 36128/07 Page numbers 3. Accordingly, there will be a direction that the petitioner may approach the 4th respondent along with a copy of this judgment, file necessary application producing the eligibility certificate dated 14.2.2008. Thereupon, the 4th respondent shall take note of the same and pass appropriate orders thereon. Once orders are so passed, consequential orders will also be passed by the 3rd respondent. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE mt/-
