It is  submitted,  he<br \/>\n        has  been  denied  admission, even though the persons ranked<br \/>\n        below him in the select list have been admitted.  So, he has<br \/>\n        preferred Ext.P7 representation before the Vice  Chancellor.<br \/>\n        Thereafter, this Writ Petition is filed, seeking appropriate<br \/>\n        reliefs.\n<\/p>\n<p>        \t2.  The 1st respondent Principal has filed a counter<br \/>\n        affidavit.  According to him, the petitioner does not have a<br \/>\n        conduct certificate, which is one of the  pre-requisite  for<br \/>\n        admission in  a  college.    It  is  also submitted that the<br \/>\n        antecedents  of  the  petitioner,  such  as  indulgence   in<br \/>\n        criminal  activities,  malpractices  in the examination etc.<br \/>\n        would show that  he  is  ineligible  for  admission  in  the<br \/>\n        college.   It  is  also  submitted  that  as the Head of the<br \/>\n        institution, he is entitled to decide whether  an  applicant<br \/>\n        will  perform  as  a good and disciplined student and if the<br \/>\n        finding is against the applicant, admission can  be  denied.<br \/>\n        Other contentions are also raised.  The petitioner has filed<br \/>\n        a reply affidavit also.\n<\/p>\n<p>        \t3.   I  do  not propose to go into the merits of the<br \/>\n        contentions raised by  both  sides,  at  this  stage.    The<br \/>\n        University  has  already  called  for  the  comments  of the<br \/>\n        Principal on Ext.P7 representation.  The Principal has filed<br \/>\n        Ext.R1(a) objection.  Having regard  to  the  facts  of  the<br \/>\n        case,  I  feel  that  an  impartial  decision  of  the  Vice<br \/>\n        Chancellor in this dispute will be appropriate in this case.<br \/>\n        So, without going into the  rival  contentions  raised,  the<br \/>\n        Vice Chancellor of the Kerala University is directed to take<br \/>\n        a  decision on Ext.P7 representation in accordance with law,<br \/>\n        within two weeks from the date of production of  a  copy  of<br \/>\n        this order.    Both  sides  will  be  free  to  file written<br \/>\n        arguments before the Vice Chancellor within  one  week  from<br \/>\n        today,   The Vice Chancellor shall advert to the contentions<br \/>\n        of both sides and take an impartial decision in the matter.<br \/>\n        \tHandover the order.\n<\/p>\n<p>        19TH OCTOBER, 2004.\t\tK.BALAKRISHNAN NAIR, JUDGE@@<br \/>\n                             AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA<\/p>\n<p>        nm\/<br \/>\n.PA<\/p>\n<p>        \t\t\t\tK.BALAKRISHNAN NAIR, J.@@<br \/>\n            AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA\n<\/p>\n<p>        \t\t\t\t&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br \/>\n        \t\t\t\tO.P.
