JUDGMENT The petitioner has filed this writ petition seeking for a direction to allot the petitioner a seat available in freeship quota for Computer Science and if it is not possible, in Information Technology. 2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel appearing for the respondents. 3. The request made by the petitioner was rejected by the Government as per Ext.P2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that since free seats are available, there is no difficulty for the respondents to consider the claim of the petitioner. 4. Learned Standing Counsel appearing for the LBS College of Engineering submitted that the petitioner was granted admission in the year 2006 and due to lapse of a number of years, at this distance of time there is no possibility to allot a freeship seat to the petitioner, since the vacant seats had already been freezed. Apart from that, by Ext.P2 the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations had informed the petitioner that the admission of Engineering courses in self financing colleges were closed on 24.11.2006 wpc9096 /2007 2 and that the spot counselling to certain freeship seats held on 8.2.2007 was as per the direction of this Court in the common judgment in W.P.(C) No.29832/2006 and connected cases. In that view of the matter, as already three years are over, at this distance of time no further relief can be given to the petitioner. Therefore, the writ petition is dismissed. No costs. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
