IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CWP No. 16045 of 2011 (O&M) Date of Decision: 21.10.2011 Khalsa College of Veterinary & Animal Science ...Petitioner Versus Union of India and others ..Respondents. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment ? 2. Whether to be referred to the Reporters or not ? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present : Mr. Sameer Sachdeva, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. G.S.Sidhu, Advocate, for respondent No.1. Mr. H.N.S.Gill, Advocate, for respondent No.2. Mr. Rajiv Sharma, Advocate, for respondent No. 3. **** SURYA KANT, J.(Oral) The petitioner college is stated to have established a Veterinary college to impart quality higher education to the students in Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry degree course. 2. The Veterinary Council of India and other stake holders have suspended the petitioner's recognition as according to them the petitioner college/institution has been found lacking in basic infrastructure/facilities required under the statutory Regulations during two inspections carried out by them. Aggrieved petitioner- college has approached this Court. CWP No. 16045 of 2011 (O&M) [2] 3. The respondents have filed their reply/affidavit along with voluminous record to show that not one but several deficiencies have been noticed by the Inspecting Team on inspection of the petitioner-college due to which the impugned decision was taken. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner-college on the other hand submits that all the deficiencies/lack in infrastructure, as pointed out by the Inspection Team, have since been remedied/removed by them. It is claimed that an intimation to this effect has been sent to the Veterinary Council of India also. He urges that the petitioner-college alongwith entire infrastructure is open to fresh inspection by the Veterinary Council of India with an endeavour that the petitioner- institute is not deprived of admitting the students in the on-going session. 5. In the light of the categoric stand taken on behalf of the petitioner-college, however, without expressing any views on its claim that the infrastructure/facilities have been made available as per the statutory Regulations, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the Veterinary Council of India to depute another Inspection Team which shall be preferably comprising its earlier members unless some of them are not available for the reasons beyond the control to revisit at the expenses of the petitioner-college and hold an enquiry/inspection regarding availability of the infrastructure and other requisite facilities. The Inspection Team shall be at liberty to videograph the infrastructure available in the Institute at the expenses of the petitioner. The Inspection Team shall also CWP No. 16045 of 2011 (O&M) [3] obtain the documentary proof including appointment letters etc. if any deficiency in this regard, was earlier found. The Inspection Team on objective consideration of the matter and uninfluenced of its previous report, shall submit a fresh report to the Veterinary Council of India within a period of 10 days from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order. The Veterinary Council of India shall thereafter take a fresh decision strictly in accordance with law and its Regulations within two weeks. Earlier interim directions shall, however, continue till the Veterinary Council of India takes a fresh decision in the matter. Dasti. 21.10.2011 (SURYA KANT) 'ravinder' JUDGE
