JUDGMENT The petitioner seeks affiliation from the University in relation to the course in Aeronautical Engineering. The petitioner seeks a direction to the 3rd respondent to consider Ext.P3 application for grant of affiliation, so that the petitioner will be in a position to start the course for the academic year 2008-09. 2. Sri.T.A.Shaji, learned counsel for the University, submits that Ext.P3 was filed only on 4.9.2008 and obviously, the University requires time to consider the same. This contention is reasonable. In the result, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 3rd respondent to consider Ext.P3 application, in accordance with law and take an appropriate action thereon within six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
