C.M.Mohammed Iquabal, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Sri. P.C.Sasidharan, the learned standing counsel appearing for the University of Calicut. 2. The petitioner appeared for the 5th semester B.Tech degree examination in Civil Engineering (Part-time) conducted by the University of Calicut in November, 2008. The results were published in the last week of June, 2009. The petitioner failed in the paper “Structural Analysis”. He has therefore applied for revaluation of his answer script by submitting Ext.P2 application dated 27.6.2009. Relying on Ext.P3 it is stated that the requisite fee has also been paid. The grievance voiced by the petitioner is that though more than five months have passed after he applied for revaluation of his answer script, till date, no action has been taken by the respondents. 3. Sri.P.C.Sasidharan, the learned standing counsel for the University of Calicut submits on instructions that Ext.P2 application W.P.(C) No. 33611/09 2 has been received and is in order. He submits that the University will take expeditious steps to revalue the petitioner's answer script and to communicate the result to him. In the light of the said submission, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to take steps to have the petitioner's answer script revalued and to communicate the result to him expeditiously and in any event within eight weeks from the date on which the petitioner produces a certified copy of this judgment before the Controller of Examinations, University of Calicut.
