On being successful at the Sub District Level competition they participated in the Revenue District Level Youth Festival, but, however, lost in securing ranking. The appeal so filed was seen rejected by Ext. P7. It is challenging Ext. P7 and seeking permission to participate in the State Level competition this writ petition has been filed. 2. Since the judges have unanimously found the petitioner unworthy of any prize I do not find any irregularity. That apart, the appeal has been rejected for the reason that the grounds urged are vague. The petitioner has also not produced the appeal memorandum to ascertain what the grounds urged were before the appellate committee. In view of all these I do not find any merit in this writ petition. Writ petition is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE jan/-
