JUDGMENT
The petitioner's team participated in the event 'Arabanamuttu' in the District Level School Kalolsavam and could secured only A Grade. The appeal filed was rejected by the Appeal Committee as per Ext.P1 order without considering the contention that the performance was affected by the defective lighting system and hence the writ petition.
2. The learned Government Pleader submits on instructions that, there is no pith of substance in the contentions raised. It is stated that the petitioner got only the 3rd place and that all the judges had awarded only lesser marks to the petitioner. The allegation, if at all any, with regard to the defective stage was applicable to all participants and there was no such report from the stage manager.
3. After going through the pleadings and proceedings and the submissions of the learned Government Pleader, this
W.P.(C) No.1157 of 2015 Court finds that the petitioner has not established any tenable ground to call for interference. Accordingly, interference is declined and the writ petition is dismissed.
