J U D G M E N T Heard Sri.T.Madhu, 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 fourth semester B.Tech. degree supplementary examination in Mechanical Engineering conducted by the University of Calicut in December 2008. The results were published in August 2009. The petitioner again failed in the paper “Thermo Dynamics”. In the meanwhile he had completed the course of study. The petitioner submits that he had done well in the examination, that if his answer script in Thermo Dynamics is revalued, he is sure to secure a pass and that unless his answer script is revalued expeditiously, he will be put to serious prejudice. In this writ petition, the petitioner seeks a writ in the nature of mandamus commanding the respondents to re-value his answer script in Thermo Dynamics and to communicate the result expeditiously. 3. The learned Standing Counsel appearing for the University of Calicut submits that the University will revalue the petitioner's answer script in Thermo Dynamics, if his application is otherwise in order, W.P(C) No. 30567 of 2009-M 2 expeditiously, and in any event within eight weeks. He also submits that the result of revaluation will be communicated to the petitioner expeditiously thereafter. In the light of the said submission I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to respondents to take steps to have petitioner's answer script revalued and to communicate the results to him within eight weeks from today. The petitioner shall in order to enable the respondents to act as directed above, produce a certified copy of this judgment before the Controller of Examinations, University of Calicut.
