The petitioner has also sought a direction to the respondents to admit her in the academic year 20182019 in case she is found to be successful in both the JEE Main Examination conducted by respondent No.1 and JEE Advanced Examination to be conducted by respondent No.2.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner made an application dated 26.04.2018 challenging the answers of four questions of the JEE Examination held on 08.04.2018, as reflected in
its answer key released by the respondent No.1 on 24.04.2018. He submits that till date, the respondents have not decided the petitioner’s application and therefore, prays that the petitioner should be permitted to appear in the JEE Advanced Exam, that is scheduled on 20.05.2018.
Learned counsel for respondent No.1, who appears on advance notice, submits that the petitioner’s application dated 26.04.2018 has been duly considered and the respondents have after considering all objections to the original answer key, already placed the fresh answer key after carrying out revision, as applicable, on its website on 30.04.2018.
In view of the aforesaid statement made by learned counsel for respondent No.1, learned counsel for the petitioner seeks leave to withdraw the present petition with liberty to challenge the fresh answer key placed by respondent No.1 on its website on 30.04.2018.
The petition along with pending applications are dismissed as withdrawn with liberty as prayed for.
Needless to say that the petitioner would be at liberty to challenge the said revised answer key on all grounds including the grounds taken in the present petition.
