1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY ORIGINAL SIDE WRIT PETITION NO.2161 OF 2009 Miss Priyanka S. Karambalkar .... Petitioner Vs. The Matron, Training College of Nursing, St. George Hospital, Mumbai & Ors. .... Respondents Shri Rahul Arote for the Petitioner. Shri D.A. Nalawade, Government Pleader, for Respondent Nos.1, 2 and 5. CORAM: J.N. PATEL AND A.P. BHANGALE, JJ. DATED: MARCH 29, 2010 P.C: 1. Heard. The petitioner has approached this Court praying for a direction to the respondents to revoke the letter dated 7-8-2009 which cancels her admission to the General Nursing and Midwifery  three-and-half years New Course in the Nursing Training College, St. Georges Hospital, Mumbai. On being served with the notice, the respondents have filed their affidavit in-reply wherein the Matron of the Training College of Nursing has stated that the petitioner was from the Commerce stream and her case was not considered for admission as there were other 29 candidates from the Science stream in the waiting list seeking admission. 2 It has been categorically stated that due to oversight, the petitioner was selected for the course of Nursing, though she was not a student from the Science stream. As the error in the case of the petitioner came to be detected on 7-8-2009, when her documents were being scrutinised, it was immediately informed to the petitioner. 2. The admission Rules for the year 2009 clearly provides that candidates who have passed their HSC Examination or equivalent examination recognised by the State of Maharashtra by opting for Physics, Chemistry and Biology with 45% marks in the case of open category candidates and 35% marks in the case of backward class candidates will only be eligible for being considered for the said Nursing course. The proviso to Rule 4 provides that in case no candidate (from Science stream) is available, then candidates from other faculties/streams will be considered for the said Nursing course. Therefore, we find that the case of the petitioner has been rightly rejected by the respondents. The petition is, therefore, dismissed. J.N. PATEL, J. A.P. BHANGALE, J.
