These appeals are decided by common order as the facts and issues involved are similar. For the sake of convenience, the facts are being taken from D.B. Special Appeal Writ No. 515/2023. 2. This intra-court appeal is filed against the order dated 28.03.2023 passed by the learned Single Judge in SBCWP No.8531/2022 and connected matters.

¶46

The brief facts are that the appellant took admission in Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology in the year 2015-16.

¶50

The duration of the diploma was for two years. The appellant failed to complete the diploma. The appellant appeared in exam held in April-2020 but failed in one paper. The appellant again appeared in 2021 to clear the paper of Pathology but failed.

¶51

The petitioner filed the writ petition seeking a mercy chance to appear in paper of Pathology. The argument in writ petition was that the order dated 05.02.2018, restricting the time period for completion of diploma to four years in maximum eight attempts would not apply retrospectively to batch of 2015-16.

¶52

Learned Single Judge held that the issue in writ petition is covered with decision of this Court in Yogendra vs. Rajasthan University of Health Sciences, Jaipur & ors. passed in D.B. Special Appeal Writ No.1188/2022 dismissed the writ petition. It was considered that the appellant failed to clear exams even after a lapse of seven years. The appellant was rightly denied extra chance in accordance with Clause 19 of the order dated 05.02.2018.

¶53

Learned counsel for the appellant submits that there cannot be retrospective operation of order dated 05.02.2018 and appellant should be granted a mercy chance to clear the exam.

¶54

The appellant was pursuing a diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology, which is directly associated with medical profession. It is undisputed fact that inspite of taking admission in the diploma course in academic year 2015-16 till 2021, the appellant was unsuccessful in clearing the examination.

¶55

The appearance of the appellant in examination held in December 2021 shows that after end of the diploma in the year 2017-18 appellant was not able to compete diploma for three

years thereafter. The appellant had an opportunity to clear the exams after Covid-19 situation but failed to do so.

¶60

The applicability of decision in Yogendra (supra) has not been disputed even in the intra-court appeal.

¶61

The appellant got chances for more than six years to clear the exams and complete the diploma. A student has no vested right to get unlimited time period and chances for clearing the exams of diploma of two years duration and that to by invoking writ jurisdiction.

¶62

No interference is called for in the impugned order refusing to exercise writ jurisdiction and dismissing the writ petition. 12. The appeals are dismissed.
