It is not in dispute that after examining the records of the examination, this Court has reached to the conclusion that the allegations of irregularities committed in conducting the examination and declaring the results of persons like petitioner are serious in nature and, therefore, this Court has directed that revaluation of the answer-sheets of the persons like petitioner be conducted by constituting a two members independent Committee.

Since the contention of the petitioner is that the petitioner was awarded seven marks less and for this the petitioner is relying on the answer copy of Mr.Arun Kumar Kadam of whom roll number is 1478 and Mr.Mukesh Kumar Chaturvedi having roll No.1154 to whom higher marks were given upon submitting the same reply, therefore, the petition filed by the petitioner is disposed of with a short direction that the petitioner shall submit a fresh representation with full particulars how the petitioner is entitled for higher marks.
If such a representation is filed along with fee of Rs.10,000/- as the petitioner is in job, then the representation submitted by the petitioner relating to answer script of the petitioner for Paper V (Company Accounts, Cost Accounts & Store Control) shall be sent for revaluation to two independent valuer of the subject, who shall revalue the marks awarded to the petitioner keeping in view the answer scripts of Mr.Arun Kumar Kadam and Mr.Mukesh Kumar Chaturvedi.
Needful be done by the petitioner within four weeks.

In view of the aforesaid, this petition is disposed of with similar directions as have been quoted herein above.
The directions issued by this Court in the case of Diwakar Rao Rojaskar (supra) would be applicable in the case of WRIT PETITION No.12584/2012 3 petitioner mutatis mutandis.
