     THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
31.08.2022, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
 WP(C) NO. 27396 OF 2021
                                    2



                               JUDGMENT

Even though several assertions have been

made and averments urged in this writ petition,

it is evident that this Court cannot come to

the aid of the petitioner, unless a decision

is taken by the Controller of Examinations,

University of Kerala at the first instance.

This is more so because there are several

orders that come into play, as also

multifarious facts, which will have to be

assessed and evaluated.

2. I notice that the petitioner had, in

fact, preferred Ext.P11 representation before

the afore said Authority.

3. I, therefore, asked Sri.Thomas Abraham

- learned Standing Counsel for the University,

whether the Controller of Examinations can take WP(C) NO. 27396 OF 2021

up Ext.P11 and dispose it of in terms of law.

He replied that, if the petitioner only

requires such an action, he will not stand in

the way of appropriate orders being issued;

however, praying that this Court may not make

any affirmative declarations in favour of the

petitioner and leave it to the said respondent

to take an appropriate decision thereon, as per

law. He submitted that he is making the afore

request also because the petitioner has already

availed of several supplementary chances, to

clear his examinations.

Taking note of the afore submissions and

without entering into the merits of any of the

rival contentions, I order this writ petition

to the limited extent of directing the

Controller of Examinations, Kerala University,

to take up Ext.P11 and dispose it of, after WP(C) NO. 27396 OF 2021

affording an opportunity of being heard to the

petitioner, as expeditiously as is possible,

but not later than one month from the date of

receipt of a copy of this judgment.
