JUDGMENT
Petitioner has come out with the following prayers:
i. Issue a writ of Certiorari or any other appropriate Writ, order or direction to quash Exhibit P9 as it is issued against the spirit of Exhibit P7 and P8.
ii. To declare that petitioner is eligible and entitled for all educational concessions applicable to OEC students and to continue and complete her course of study BSW in 3rd Respondent without payment of fee.
iii. To direct the 3rd respondent to permit the petitioner to appear in the remaining examinations in 5 th semester and upcoming examinations conducted by 2nd respondent University.
iv. To direct the 3rd respondent to refund the amount of fees already collected from the petitioner.
v. Any other appropriate order or direction which this Hon'ble court may deem fit and proper in the facts and circumstances of the case.
Vide order Ext.P9 concession given to the other backward
classes was refused to the petitioner. Learned counsel for the
respondent University submits that the petitioner though has got
admission. During the pendency of the writ petition petitioner has
filed I.A.No.5254/2017 submitting that the respondents were not WP(C) NO. 33562 OF 2015
permitting the petitioner to sit in the 5 th semester examination.
Though in pursuance of the interim order had sat in the 5 th
semester examination and passed all the semesters, but refusing
to hand over all original documents. This Court vide order dated
04.04.2017 directed the 4th respondent to return all the original
certificates with her mark list on production of that order, which
reads as under:
"There is no appearance for the fourth respondent.
Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner.
Having regard to the averments made in the affidavit filed in support of the application, I deem it appropriate to pass an interim order directing the fourth respondent to return the original certificates of the petitioner along with her marks lists on production of this order."
Once the petitioner completed the semesters and given
benefit, in my view nothing survives in the writ petition. Writ
petition is ordered to be closed.
