JUDGMENT
Petitioner is the President of a Trust stated to be running
higher education institutions in Kerala and also in Tamil Nadu.
It is contended that the U.G.C. has granted to the petitioner, the
status of a ‘Deemed University’. Petitioner then submitted
Exts.P5 and P6 applications before the U.G.C. for bringing a
College of Dental Science and College of Nursing established in
Neyyattinkara within the ambit of Ext.P4. The first respondent
vide Exts.P7 and P8 letters, sought for the comments of the State
Government In this regard. State Government has not given its
comments so far and the petitioner has approached the State
Government with Ext.P9 representation requesting expeditious
action. This is not responded to and hence the writ petition.
2. I heard learned Counsel for the petitioner Mr. Jobi Jose
Kondody and Mr. S.Krishnamoorthi, learned Counsel for the first
respondent and the Senior Government Pleader appearing for
the Government.

decision on the same and give a response to the U.G.C. on
Exts.P7 and P8 as early as possible, at any rate within 6 weeks

of this writ petition along with the copy of the judgment.
