' The petitioner through this Constitutional petition has prayed for a direction to the respondents to grant her admission to M. A. APPLIED PSYCHOLOGY. The petition was admitted to regular hearing and notices were sent to the respondents who have appeared and contested the petition.
2. The learned counsel for the petitioner in support of the petition argued that the petitioner had 977 marks to her credit, therefore, she was entitled to admission on merits. It is added that the respondents illegally did not allow the credit of 20 marks on account of N.C.C.
3. On the other hand, the learned counsel for the respondents argued that the petitioner did not furnish the N.C.C. Certificate along with the admission form, therefore, she was not allowed 20 marks in accordance with the formula to work out the merit for admission.
4. The learned counsel for the petitioner replied that according to the admission form the petitioner was not required to append the N.C.C. Certificate alongwith the admission form. The arguments are summed up with the submission that in any case the petitioner had completed her First Year, therefore, it would be too harsh not to regularize her admission.
5. I have given my anxious consideration to the arguments of the parties and gone through the record. The last student granted admission to MA. APPLIED PSYCHOLOGY had 975 marks to his credit. The petitioner was ignored because her marks were counted at 957. If 20 marks of N.C.C.
Which is her legitimate right, are added then the petitioner had 977 marks to her credit, therefore, was entitled to admission. The petitioner has produced the certificate of N.C.C. Which is not denied.
It seems that the petitioner was not allowed admission inadvertently.
6. The upshot of the above discussion is that this writ petition is allowed. The result is that the Provisional Admission granted to the petitioner is confirmed. There is no order as to costs.
