SHRI T.A.SHAJI (SC -M.G.UNIVERSITY) THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 08/03/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, J. ---------------------------------------------- W.P.(C)No. 7341 OF 2010 ----------------------------------------------------- DATED THIS THE 8th DAY OF MARCH, 2010 J U D G M E N T All the petitioners have joined together and seek for a direction to the University to complete the re-valuation of the answer papers sought for by them within a time limit. The petitioners herein are students of the De Paul Computer Academy, Angamaly for Distance Education . They are studying for the 2nd Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) 2. Exhibits P1(a) to P28(a) are the applications submitted by the petitioners along with the pay-in-slip for remittance of the prescribed fees. These applications are dated 3.3.2010. The papers for which the re-valuation is sought for are different also in respect of various petitioners. 3. The first year examination will be commencing on 20.4.2010 and will be completed on 5.5.2010. The 2nd year examination will be commencing on 28.4.2010 and will be completed on 12.5.2010. Exhibit P29 is the time table for the same. According to the petitioners, if the results of re-valuation are not published by the end of March, 2010, all the petitioners will have to remit fees again and prepare for examination of first year. W.P.(C)No.7341/10, -2- 4. The learned Standing Counsel for the University submitted that it may be impossible for them to complete the revaluation within a short time. It is submitted that last date for submitting application for re-valuation is 8.3.2010. At least 90 days will be required for completing the re-valuation and in certain cases probably it may require a second re-valuation also, if circumstances exist for the same. 5. Even though the petitioners seek for postponement of the examination which is scheduled as per Exhibit P29, this Court cannot interfere obviously in respect of such matters. 6. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that a direction may be issued to complete the re-valuation as expeditiously as possible. Therefore, there will be a direction to the University to complete the process of re-valuation and inform the result of the re- valuation as expeditiously as possible – at any rate within a period of two months from the date of production of a copy of this judgment, provided the applications are otherwise in order. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, JUDGE dsn
