Court: Delhi

Decided on: Oct-20-2003

Reported in: 2003VIIAD(Delhi)316

It was after that stage that the Respondents took the decision that his educational qualifications are not equivalent to those acceptable by them. The fact that the Petitioner had reached this advanced stage before the Respondents considered it appropriate to look into his qualifications is a factor which the Respondents should ensure that does not recur in the future. So far as appearing in the Examination is concerned, it may be reasonable for a University to fall back on the large number of applications it receives to submit that it is not feasible to check equivalence or basic qualifications at the early stage. But certainly when candidates are called for Interviews, and they are shortlisted prior to the interview, it is certainly feasible that such a scrutiny should be undertaken. 2. ...
