THE CONTROLLER OF EXAMINATIONS M.G.UNIVERSITY, KOTTAYAM. BY SC MG UTY SRI. T.A SHAJI THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 23/09/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------------- W.P.(C.) No.28012 of 2010 (B) --------------------------------- Dated, this the 23rd day of September, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioner was a B.Com student in a College affiliated to the respondent University. In the final year examination, the petitioner failed in the subject Malayalam. He appeared for the supplementary examination that was held in June, 2010. Result is not declared so far. Stating that he has already secured admission for Post Graduate Course, he submitted Ext.P4 representation requesting the University to expedite declaration of results. There was no response. That led the petitioner to file this writ petition. 2. Learned Standing Counsel informs that the valuation process has already started and there are more than 20,000 answer papers to be valued. It is also informed that by the end of December, 2010, valuation will be completed and that results will be declared. It is also stated that having regard to the process of valuation, it is impractical to segregate the answer paper of the petitioner and value the same separately. WP(C) No.28012/2010 -2- 3. If as stated by the learned Standing Counsel there are more than 20,000 answer papers to be valued, and it is impractical to segregate the answer paper of the petitioner, this Court will not be justified in directing the University to value the answer paper of the petitioner separating the same from the rest of the batch. Therefore, although I am not in a position to fix a time limit to publish the results, I direct the University to expedite valuation and ensure that the same is completed as expeditiously as possible. It is directed that once results are ready, it will be open to the petitioner to make an application to the University for confidentially communicating the results to the Institution, where the petitioner has secured admission for the Post Graduate Course. With these directions, this writ petition is disposed of. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
