IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA, CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.4557 of 2009 Date of Decision: March 23, 2009 Sarabjit Singh .....PETITIONER(S) VERSUS State of Punjab & Others .....RESPONDENT(S) . . . CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA PRESENT: - Mr. C.L. Chander Shekhar, Advocate, for the petitioner. . . . AJAI LAMBA, J (Oral) This civil writ petition filed under Article 226/227 of the Constitution of India prays for issuance of a writ in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents to give grace marks to the petitioner in the subject of Chemistry for examination held on 5.3.2009 for Class XII and declare the petitioner pass. It has been brought out that the Chemistry paper was out of syllabus. The authorities realised this fact and have scheduled the examination to be held again for all the students. Learned counsel for the petitioner states that the petitioner is disabled to the extent of 80% and therefore would not be in a position to CWP No.4557 of 2009 [2] take the exam. I have considered the contentions. Because the paper was out of syllabus, the respondents have already taken a favourable decision for taking the examination again. No ground for isolating the petitioner for treating it as a special case is made out. Admittedly, the petitioner took the examination earlier held for Chemistry subject. The petition is dismissed.
