IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No. 9397 of 2010. [O&M] Date of Decision: 05th December, 2011. Karmbir Petitioner through Mr. Kamal Mor, Advocate Versus State of Haryana & Anr. Respondents through Mr. R.S.Kundu, Addl.AG, Haryana Mr. GPS Bal, Advocate. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT. 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? SURYA KANT, J. [ORAL] The petitioner impugns the result of the State Teachers' Eligibility Test held on 27.07.2008 mainly on the ground that while he has been awarded 54 grace marks, other similarly placed candidates have been awarded 69.5 grace marks. As a result thereof, similarly situate candidates are said to have been declared 'pass', the petitioner has been declared 'fail'. Having heard learned counsel for the parties, I am of the considered view that though grace marks can not be claimed as a matter of right through a writ court, the petitioner will be well within his right to approach the Competent Authority to enhance his grace marks, if permissible under the Rules and/or on the basis of parity claimed by the petitioner. This writ petition is disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to move an appropriate application before the Competent Authority and if any such application is moved, the same shall be considered sympathetically and disposed of within one month, in accordance with law. Disposed of. Dasti. December 05, 2011. ( SURYA KANT ) dinesh JUDGE
