Petitioner contends that the entire procedure adopted by the<\/p>\n<p>respondents for award of marks as well as the disposal of the appeal filed by<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P.(C) No. 37779\/09                    2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>her are against the guidelines prescribed for the same in the Manual<\/p>\n<p>governing the conduct of the Youth Festival. According to her, by Ext.P8,<\/p>\n<p>which is the extract from the Manual for conduct of School Youth Festival,<\/p>\n<p>for separate aspects of the performance of candidates, separate marks have<\/p>\n<p>been prescribed. She also points out that in the score sheet provided to the<\/p>\n<p>Judges, as evidenced by Ext.P5, score for each value points have to be<\/p>\n<p>separately given, but, as is clear from Exts.P4 to P7, score for each value<\/p>\n<p>points have not been given by the Judges for the contest and total marks<\/p>\n<p>only have been given, which is against the guidelines in the Manual itself.<\/p>\n<p>She further submits that as per the Manual, appeal filed by a candidate has<\/p>\n<p>to be disposed of within five days, which has not been done in this case.<\/p>\n<p>The petitioner, therefore, submits that in so far as the entire process has<\/p>\n<p>been against the guidelines of the Manual, the petitioner should also be<\/p>\n<p>permitted to participate in the District School Youth Festival.<\/p>\n<p>        3. Heard the learned Government Pleader also.\n<\/p>\n<p>        4. I am dismayed that the respondents have acted in an irresponsible<\/p>\n<p>manner in the conduct of the District Youth Festival, as is clear from<\/p>\n<p>Ext.P8. The Judges are bound to mark separate scores for each value points<\/p>\n<p>like &#8220;Nadam&#8221;, &#8220;Ragabhavam&#8221;, &#8220;Thalam&#8221; and the like in the score sheet. As<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P.(C) No. 37779\/09                   3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>is evidenced from Exts.P4 to P7, which are copies of the score sheets, that<\/p>\n<p>has not been done. So also appeal has to be disposed of within five days,<\/p>\n<p>which also admittedly has not been done. Respondents must realize that<\/p>\n<p>guidelines are prescribed in for compliance and not for violating the same.<\/p>\n<p>In fact it is because of such irresponsible conduct of the respondents that<\/p>\n<p>these kinds of litigation arise. I am of the opinion that the respondents will<\/p>\n<p>do well, at least in future, to avoid such violation of the guidelines<\/p>\n<p>prescribed by themselves.\n<\/p>\n<p>        5. However, that is no ground to permit the petitioner to take part in<\/p>\n<p>the District Level School Youth Festival competition,which is restricted<\/p>\n<p>only to first prize winners in Sub District level competiton. For permitting<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner, I have to assess the comparative merit between the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>and the winner. That winner is not made a party in this writ petition. Apart<\/p>\n<p>from that, although separate score for each value points have not been<\/p>\n<p>given, the total marks awarded to the first prize winner and the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>has a difference of 12 marks. I am unable to find that the petitioner,<\/p>\n<p>therefore, is   eligible to participate in the District Level School Youth<\/p>\n<p>Festival competition only because of the irregularities committed by the<\/p>\n<p>respondents.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P.(C) No. 37779\/09                  4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>        6. In the above circumstances, I do not find any merit in the writ<\/p>\n<p>petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed, subject to the above<\/p>\n<p>observations regarding the conduct of the School Youth Festival by the<\/p>\n<p>respondents at least in future.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                      S.
