This writ petition has been filed challenging the order passed by the first respondent dated 24.03.2025 thereby refusing to grant permission to retain in the program since the petitioner is not eligible to proceed to any of the semesters without completing the first semester as per the regulations. 2.
The petitioner had joined to pursue his B.Sc.(BMS) in the first respondent institution. On several occasions, the petitioner was suspended on the allegations such as splitting acid inside the lab and harming other students. That apart, the petitioner failed in 21 subjects out of 22 subjects till the completion of 2nd year. As per the regulations, he is not eligible to proceed his further semesters without completing the first semester. Therefore, the petitioner was rightly denied for continuation of his course.

Therefore, this court finds no infirmity or illegality in the impugned order. As such, this writ petition is liable to be dismissed.
