RANJIT SINGH, J.
The petitioner was initially shown as having passed in the Gazette. Subsequently, this result was corrected. While issuing corrigendum, he was shown as a candidate, who had got compartment in one subject. The petitioner has filed this writ petition for seeking direction that he should be declared pass in 10+2 examination.
This petition is not maintainable as only the mistake has been corrected. Since the result was wrongly declared, the same was corrected by carrying out the correction. No cause for intereference is made out.
The writ petition is, accordingly, dismissed.
