Naik, JJ. DATE : 24.03.2008. Heard Mr.R.S.Khobragade, Adv. for the petitioner, Mr.N.W.Sambre, Government Pleader for the Respondent No.1 and Mr.B.G.Kulkarni, Adv. for the Respondent No.2. This Writ Petition is directed against the impugned communication dt. 8.2.2008 whereby the admission form of the petitioner for B.Ed. examination which is scheduled from tomorrow is rejected on the ground that the petitioner did not have Secondary Education System till graduation and therefore, a certificate of eligibility for admission cannot be granted. Mr.B.G.Kulkarni, Adv. for the Respondent No.2/University has submitted that the petitioner opted for first method of teaching in subject “English” which he already had at the graduation level, however, the second method of teaching i.e. “Civics” opted by the petitioner, the petitioner did not have the said subject at the graduation level. It is further stated that subject “Civics” is neither part 2 of Sociology nor can be included in the said subject nor is analogous to that. Consequently, as per the procedure, since the petitioner did not have second method of subject “Civics” at the graduation level, his examination form for B.Ed. examination was not accepted. In the backdrop of the above referred facts, it appears that, as per the requirement of law, the petitioner ought to have second method of teaching in the concerned subject at the graduation examination. In the instant case, the petitioner did not have subject “Civics” at the graduation level. Hence, the decision taken by the Respondent No.2/University in such a situation cannot be held to be bad in law. Consequently, the petition is dismissed. JUDGE JUDGE ssj
