¶24

one academic year from the date of passing the last examination.

¶25

That so far as the aforesaid eligibility criteria is concerned, there is no difference between the fresh/ in-service candidates and both the candidates are at par. However, ANM / LHV / FHW who have been exempted for six months during third year will be eligible for third year examination after completion of six months training but no relaxation in the aforesaid eligibility for completion of first and second year course has been given to such candidates.

¶26

That in the present case admittedly the result of the First Year GNM Examination November 2011 held from 19.11.2011 to 21.11.2011 was declared on 18.4.2012 wherein the petitioner was declared failed in two subjects Paper II (Behavi. 1.Science) External Exam and Paper-IV (Comm. Health Nsg) External Examination. Thereafter, the result of I year GNM Supplementary Examination July 2012 held from 14.7.2012 to 17.7.2012 the result was declared on 3.9.2012 and II year GNM Examination April 2013 held from 26.4.2013 to 28.4.2013 result was declared on 29.5.2013. Thus it is clear that the petitioner has not passed the II Year GNM

¶27

(3 of 3) [CW-3503/2014]

¶28

Examination after passing of clear 11 months of one academic session and therefore as per the aforesaid regulation / syllabus, the petitioner was not eligible for third year and training without clearing the II Year Course. However, the petitioner some how managed the things and appeared in the II year Examination without passing of clear 11 months as per syllabus and therefore her candidature for third year as well as training has been rightly held invalid and ineligible. Photostat Copy of the Marksheet dated 6.6.2014 if filed and marked as Annexure R-1”

¶29

Perusal of the aforesaid reply indicates that the petitioner has failed in two subjects of first year examination, hence she was not allowed to take the examination of second year. This Court finds no merit and substance in this petition as the petitioner was not eligible for internship and for appearance in the second year examination.

¶30

Accordingly, the present writ petition stands dismissed

¶31

Stay application and all pending application (S) if any, also stand dismissed.
