R1 TO R4 BY SC SHRI. P SREEKUMAR BY T.S.SYAMPRASANTH, GOVT. PLEADER THIS WRIT PETITION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 30.04.2020, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
J U D G M E N T
The Standing Counsel Sri.P Sreekumar takes notice for the respondents 1 to 4. Learned Government pleader takes notice for the 6th respondent. In the peculiar nature of the case, notice to the 5th respondent is dispensed with.
2. The petitioners are 1st year MBBS students of the 5th
respondent S.R.Medical College. They seek publication of the results of their examination conducted in January 2020. Petitioner's roll Nos are 160014713 and 160014626. It is submitted that the results have not been published yet, which is causing prejudice to the them. In the circumstances of the case, I feel it is only just and proper if the respondents 1 to 4 are directed to publish the result of the petitioners as early as possible at any rate not later than 8 th May
2020. I so direct the respondents 1 to 4.
3. It is also clarified that the petitioners shall be permitted,
if required, to submit application for re-totalling and obtaining the answer and score sheets for the examination directly from the university. If such a process is required, necessary relaxation in the time for filing such application shall be granted by the University provided petitioners apply within the reasonable time of publication of results. This writ petition is disposed of. Sd/- BECHU KURIAN THOMAS JUDGE SM APPENDIX PETITIONER’S EXHIBITS EXT.P1 : TRUE COPY OF THE ORDER NO. U.12012/616/2015-ME-
