THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.23623 OF 2005 Date:18.11.2005 Between: M.Sarvani … Petitioners AND The Registrar and another. … Respondents ORDER: The petitioner appeared in EAMCET-2005 with a view to get admission into the first year of B.V.Sc. and A.H. course in the first respondent-University. She secured 69 marks and was placed at 34320th rank. She belongs to B.C-‘D’. She was not admitted. She challenges the action of the respondents. According to her, several candidates with far inferior ranks have been admitted into the course. In the counter-affidavit filed on behalf of the respondents, it is stated that according to the Rules prescribed by the Veterinary Council of India, a candidate must secure not less than 50% in the qualifying examination or in the entrance examination, as the case may be, and in the instant case, the petitioner did not secure 50% of the marks. It is further alleged that the ranks of the candidates, who have been admitted to the first year during the current academic year, are far superior to that of the petitioner. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned standing counsel for the respondents. The narrow controversy in this writ petition is, as to whether the petitioner had secured requisite marks to be considered for admission into the first year of B.V.Sc. and A.H. course. The Veterinary Council of India had stipulated the norms for admission. A candidate must secure not less than 50% marks in the qualifying examination and where the admission is through the process of entrance examination, the candidate must obtain minimum of 50% marks in the subjects of Physics, Chemistry and Biology in the entrance examination. The gist of this condition was incorporated in the prospectus also. The petitioner secured 69 marks out of 160 marks. Therefore, she did not become qualified to be considered for admission. Contentions were urged to the effect that several candidates, who secured less than 50% marks and ranks far inferior to that of the petitioner, were also admitted. The record placed before this Court by the University discloses that in B.C–‘D’ category, to which the petitioner belongs, the last candidate from Andhra University held the rank 3368, in the Osmania University area 5864 and in the S.V. University area 4924. For S.C. candidates, there is a relaxation to the extent of 40% in the examination concerned. The petitioner cannot compare herself with those candidates. In that view of the matter, the writ petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________ 18.11.2005 kdl
