ORDER

¶18

Heard the learned counsel on either side.

¶19

The writ petitioner is imparting Education in B.Ed Degree Course. The case on hand concerns the academic year 2021-22. The maximum intake of students permissible in the case of the petitioner’s Institute is 200. According to the petitioner, they had admitted 100 students before the cutoff date i.e., 13.12.2021. This is contested by the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent University. According to him, they received the University list containing only names of 170 students before the cutoff date.

¶20

Be that as it may, the respondent University granted approval for the admission of only 170 students. Seeking approval for remaining 30 students, this present writ petition has been filed. The said 30 students had however written the first semester examinations also. The results are yet to be published.

¶24

Now the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner states that the second semester examinations are to be held from 15.07.2022. My attention is drawn to the order dated 06.07.2022 passed by the Principal Seat in W.P.Nos. 4491 of 2022 etc., batch. The Paragraph 37 of the said order reads as follows:

¶25

“ 37.That apart, since the chart that was circulated in the second batch of Writ Petitions in regard to the number of seats allotted and the dates of compliances by the College in regard to the submission of the applications have not been provided in the first batch of Writ Petitions, there is a direction to R1 to verify compliances of the respective colleges with the cut off dates that were provided and, subject to the Syndicate granting approval, admit only those students in respect of whom applications, fee, as well as other required compliances were made in time.”

¶26

I am inclined to adopt the very same approach in the present case also.

¶27

The petitioner is permitted to submit a fresh representation setting out their prayer for approval of the admission of the petition mentioned 30 students. It is for the respondent University to consider the same and grant approval. It is stated that the agenda has to be placed before syndicate in its next meeting. Since this process may take some time the respondent is directed to permit the petitioner to write the second semester examination. I make it clear that the declaration of the first semester results as well as the second semester results

will depend upon the decision of the syndicate. The petitioner through his counsel make it clear that they will not claim any equities. The respondent University shall take the decision within a period of next eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.

¶31

With this direction to the respondent University, this writ petition is disposed of. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. No costs.
