J U D G M E N T In this writ petition what is sought for by the petitioner is revaluation of his Sanskrit answer papers. Petitioner has not referred to any provision of the regulations enabling him for such a relief. On the other hand, what is contended is that for Arabic, revaluation is provided for and therefore there is no reason for adopting a different yardstick for Sanskrit. This contention of the petitioner has no substance for the reason that in the Notification for Arabic Teachers' Examination April, 2007, clause 21 concerning Arabic only provides for scrutiny and not revaluation. If that be so, the very basis on which the petitioner has raised this contention is incorrect. It is settled law that in the matter of revaluation the authorities are to be guided by the Regulations. In this case there is no regulation for revaluation of Sanskrit answer paper. Hence, the petitioner cannot seek the relief. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE jan/-
