K.Senthilkumar (Shop No. 4482) v. The Managing Director

N.SESHASAYEE, J., The petitioner has done his schooling in the USA and graduated as per standards prescribed in that country. He wanted to prosecute his studies in India, where the qualifying examination is prescribed as 12th Standard. The student has therefore, approached the CBSE Board, which has issued equivalent certificate for the course he has done, and this has been accepted by the fourth and fifth respondents, whereas the third respondent has not accepted it.

2.This Court is also informed that the second respondent has also allotted a provisional admission to the petitioner in the third respondent university. 3.The eligibility criterion regarding passing the qualifying examination for joining a medical course in India has to be decided by the agencies other than the third respondent. This Court does not find any reason as to why the third respondent should show reluctance to accept the same, more so, when there is no choice left with it, than to permit the candidate to join the course.

4.The petitioner is required to take a private notice by e-mail, Whatsapp or even personally to the third respondent.

5.The third respondent is injuncted from surrendering the seat allotted to the petitioner by the second respondent to the central quota nor will it do anything calculated to affect the allotment so made by the second respondent.
