In that writ petition overruling the objections raised by the respondents that once allotment is made to Self Financing Colleges, the higher options get automatically cancelled, this court directed that the candidate should have been considered for allotment based on the higher options. Since the issue is fully covered in favour of the petitioner by the aforesaid judgment, this writ petition is disposed WPC.No.27961 /2010 :2 : of directing that the respondent shall consider the petitioner for allotment to the colleges mentioned in Ext.P6, the higher options exercised by the petitioner, provided there are vacancies available for B.Arch Course. Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment before the 2nd respondent who shall take appropriate action in this matter. (ANTONY DOMINIC) JUDGE vi/
