After completion of their first year of B.Ed. degree Course, their first semester examination results were not published. They were not permitted to write their second semester examination. Though the second respondent has been recognised by the National Council for Teacher Education (hereinafter called as NCTE) from the year 2009, the second respondent was not affiliated to the first respondent for the reason 'non payment of fees in time'. Therefore, some of the students approached this Court in WP.No.14343 of 2023 for direction directing them to allow to write their B.Ed. degree second to fourth semester examinations and publish all the results including the first semester results of the year 20212022.
