Siri Jagan, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W. P (C) No. 8913 of 2005 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 17th October, 2008. J U D G M E N T The petitioner challenges Ext. P. 3 rank list published by the Sree Sankaracharya Sanskrit University, Kalady for appointment to the post of Deputy Librarian prepared pursuant to Ext. P. 1. The contention of the petitioner is that the petitioner is more qualified than the persons included in Ext. P. 3 select list. The petitioner therefore seeks the following reliefs: “i) Issue a writ of certiorari or any other appropriate writ order or direction to call for the records leading upto Ext. P. 3 and quash the same. ii) to declare that the petitioner is entitled and qualified for the interview for the appointment to the post of Deputy Librarian on Regular Basis under the respondent University as per Ext. P. 1 notification.” 2. The petitioner has not produced any material whatsoever to show what are the qualifications of the three persons mentioned in Ext. P. 3 and as to how the petitioner is more qualified than them. The petitioner has no case that the persons mentioned in Ext. P. 3 do not have the qualification prescribed for the post. Petitioner's contention that he is more qualified other than the three persons mentioned in Ext. P. 3 is only a self assessment, which cannot be the basis of considering the validity of Ext. P. 3 rank list. Although mala fides are alleged against the members of the selection committee, no materials are supplied to substantiate the allegations. Therefore, I do not find any merit in this writ petition. Accordingly the same is dismissed. Sd/- S. Siri Jagan, Judge. Tds/
