The petitioner is a student of third respondent-College

in M.Com course. The examination for the first year M.Com

commenced on 10/02/2010. The petitioner was denied hall

ticket on the ground that she did not secure minimum marks

for admission to M.Com and she is short of 0.07% of marks

which is necessary for securing admission. The petitioner

has acquired 42.93% in the B.Com degree course. According

to the petitioner, no cut off marks or minimum eligibility

marks for admission to M.Com has been stipulated by the

University.

2. Going by Ext.P3 letter, the college authorities

have communicated to the Controller of Examination that

even though the petitioner has secured only 42.93% of

marks, the admission Board considered it as 43% and granted

admission to M.Com as she belongs to OBC. The petitioner

is aggrieved by the denial of the opportunity to write the

examination and hence, by Ext.P4 she has approached the

Vice Chancellor in the matter.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner prayed for

a direction to the Vice Chancellor to take a decision on

W.P.(C). No.5872/2010

continue the course in the meanwhile.

of the University to take a decision on Ext.P4 with notice

to the petitioner within a period of one month. In the

meanwhile, the petitioner will be permitted to continue the

course by the third respondent-College.

The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs.
