Narasimha Reddy, J.<\/p>\n<p>1. The petitioners studied the degree course in Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Open University, the first respondent herein. They have taken the first, second and third year examinations of the relevant degree course in May 2005, at Bellampally Study Centre. The results for the examination of second year subjects were declared. However, the Controller of Examination issued a notice, dated 19.9.2005, stating that the performance of the petitioners and other candidates, who have taken the third year and the first year undergraduate examination held in May 2005, has been cancelled, in view of the resolution passed by the Committee constituted by the Vice-Chancellor. The affected students were advised to appear in the next examinations. The petitioners challenge the action of the respondents. They contend that the examinations for the first, second and third years were conducted in the same pattern and such of the candidates, who were found to resorted for mal practices, were booked. They plead that there is absolutely no justification for the respondents in cancelling the examinations of first and third years.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.      On behalf of the respondents, counter-affidavit is filed. It is stated that the report submitted by the observers of the concerned centre, was discussed by the Committee  constituted  by   the   Vice-Chancellor, at its meeting held on 9.9.2005. Having regard to the large scale irregularities, the committee is said to have resolved the Study Centre be shifted from Junior College to Degree College and that the students,   who  have  appeared  in  the examination held in May 2005, be permitted to  take  the  examination  in  October\/ November, 2005. It is stated that a further resolution was passed to the effect that the regulations relating to mal practices cases, be circulated to all the centres. The copies of the reports of observers as well as the resolutions passed by the Committee were enclosed.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.       Sri V. Ravi Kiran Rao, the learned Counsel for the petitioners, submits that the Committee constituted by the Vice-Chancellor did not distinguish the performance of the candidates for the examinations in first, second and third year and that the notice issued by the Controller of Examinations far exceeds the scope of resolutions. He further contends that the Committee has not even employed the word &#8220;cancellation&#8221; in its resolution and in that view of the matter, the action of the respondents cannot be sustained.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.      Sri M. Ratna Reddy, the learned standing Counsel  for the University, on the other hand, submits that the report submitted by the observers discloses that large-scale mal practices were found in relation to examinations for the first and the third years and accordingly action was taken to cancel the said examination as well as to shift the centre. He contends that the interests of the petitioners are protected by permitting them to take the examination in the supplementary.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.      Before undertaking the discussion on the merits of the matter, some settled principles in the matter of cancellation of results in the examinations to various courses, need to be noticed. The cancellation of results of a candidate on the allegations of mal practices, certainly attaches stigma to him. In such cases, any action against a student can be taken, only after complying with  the principles  of natural justice. Where, however,  the results of all the students at a centre are cancelled on the allegation that there were large-scale mal practices in the entire centre, the Supreme Court held that individual notices need not be given.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.      In    the    instant    case,    the examinations for first, second and third years were held simultaneously. The results of the second year examination were declared. It is competent for the University to cancel the performance of candidates in first and third years, if there existed proper material. If the results of the candidates, who appeared at a particular centre, are cancelled, it is not necessary to have issued individual notices.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.       A perusal of the various documents furnished  by  the   petitioner  and  the respondents discloses that the observers at the  centres  made   certain  remarks  in relation to the conducting of examinations. The report does not state that any mass copying, that too, in relation to I and II years examinations were noticed. The Committee, which discussed the reports of the observers, passed the following resolutions:\n<\/p>\n<p>(1) Resolved to recommend shifting of the Bellampally Study Centre from Junior College to Decree College, in view of the large scale use of unfair means and reports of Observers about mass copying abetted by the college authorities.\n<\/p>\n<p>(2)   Resolved   to   recommend  that  the students of Bellampally Study Centre who appeared for the Examinations held in May, 2005 (Spell-I) may be permitted to take the next examination to be held in October\/November, 2005 i.e. (Spell-II).\n<\/p>\n<p>(3)   Resolved to circulate all the regulations regarding Mal practices cases to Study Centres\/Exam Centres well before  1st spell Notification. Further, the Committee shall meet in the 3rd week of September to finalize new regulations relating to Mal practices cases.\n<\/p>\n<p>8.       Even from this, it is not evident that the committee has decided to cancel the results of any particular examination. The second resolution cannot be treated as a measure to cancel the performance as well.  At any rate,  the recommendation contained therein  does  not distinguish between the first, second and third years. The Controller of Examination, however, issued a notice to the following effect:\n<\/p>\n<p>I am by direction of the Vice-Chancellor to inform you that Annual Examinations of III Year and I year U.G. held during May, 2005 at your study centre be treated as cancelled as per the resolution of the Mal practice Committee constituted by the Vice-Chancellor. In view of resorting to use of unfair means on a large scale and mass copying.\n<\/p>\n<p>The students who appeared for the aforesaid examinations may be advised to appear for the next examinations.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.       This notice does not at all accord with the resolution  of the Committee. The Controller has added several things on his own, to the  decision taken  by the Committee. Such a course is impermissible. In the name of communication of the decision of the committee, the Controller was not supposed to expand the scope of the same. Therefore, the action of the respondents in cancelling the performance of the petitioners for first and third years is set aside.\n<\/p>\n<p>10.     In the normal course of things, in view of the findings recorded by this Court, the respondents would be under obligation to declare the results of the petitioners for the  first and the  third year forthwith. However, having regard to the importance of the matter, the respondents need to be given an opportunity to address the issue from the proper perspective. They need to keep in mind that cancellation of results would have its own serious repercussions on the careers of the students and such an extreme step can be resorted to, if only, there exist proper material. It cannot be on the basis of assumptions, presumptions or surmises. The record placed before this Court so far does not suggest such an extreme step. If, however, there exists any other material disclosing that there was mass copying at the centre concerned, that too, in the examinations for first and third year, the Committee can certainly take the same into account and suggest proper action.  If individual cases have been booked and action was taken against the students concerned, the cancellation of the results en-masse becomes untenable. The fact that the supplementary examinations have been since held, needs to be kept in mind.\n<\/p>\n<p>11. Hence, the writ petition is allowed and the action of the respondents in cancelling the results of the petitioners in first and third year of the degree courses is set aside. The respondents are directed to take the decision afresh, in the lines indicated above, within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andhra High Court G.
