THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION No : 28206 of 2010 O R D E R This writ petition has been instituted by a student, who is studying final year B.Tech course in the 2nd respondent-College. The 1st respondent-University is not allowing him to appear for the examinations as he has fallen short of the requisite 75% of attendance. According to the learned counsel for the writ petitioner, the case of the petitioner herein is a very unfortunate one, inasmuch as he has taken ill because of jaundice, requiring medical attention on an emergency basis. Consequently, the writ petitioner could not put in the requisite attendance during the first semester of the final year B.Tech course. It is open to the writ petitioner to make a representation to the 1st respondent-University to condone the requisite percentage of attendance, in view of his medical attention. But, at the same time, according to the submission of the learned counsel for the 1st respondent-University, the 1st respondent-University is entitled to keep in mind the principle enunciated by the Division Bench of this Court in B.Yugandhar Vs. Principal, Kuppam Engineering College, Kuppam, Chittoor District[1]. Therefore, the petitioner’s representation is to be dealt with appropriately and he be accorded the necessary relief taking into account all factors including the principle enunciated by the Division Bench of this Court in Yugandhar’s case (cited supra). With this, the Writ Petition stands disposed of. No costs. ------------------------------------- NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO, J 12th November 2010 Issue CC today ksld [1] 2008 (2) A.L.T. 529
