Mr. N.C. Jena, learned counsel for the petitioner states that for the selfsame relief,
the petitioner has earlier approached this Court by filing W.P.(C) No. 3668 of 2016, which wa
s disposed of on 29.02.2016 granting liberty to the petitioner to move the Council to take nec
essary steps for allowing the students to appear in the examination as correspondence course s
tudents. In compliance to the same, the petitioner approached the authority on 01.03.2016, but
on 2.3.2016 they have been intimated to deposit requisite fees at a belated stage, therefore
the students have been deprived of appearing in the ensuing examination though the authorities
have verified all the relevant documents for the purpose of allowing the students to appear i
n the examination. It is stated that the examination having been started, the students may be
permitted to appear in the examination by virtue of the interim order passed by this Court.
Considering the contention raised by learned counsel for the parties and after going t
hrough the records, it appears that the petitioner has produce all the relevant documents, but
deprived of to appear the students in the ensuing examination because of the fact that requis
ite fees have not been deposited well within the time specified. This Court is not inclined to
allow the students to appear in the examination as the examination has already been started.
In the midst of the examination, no permission can be granted to the petitioner to allow the s
tudents to appear in the examination. In any case, since the instant examination has to be con
ducted by the Council, liberty is granted to the petitioner to move the authority to allow the
students to appear in the ensuing instant examination, 2016 by accepting the fees in accordan
ce with law, if it is so permissible.
