Mrs. Nourin Halder v. State Of West Bengal And ORS.
07.01.2026 Sl. No.22 Ct.24/ tkm W.P.A. 27936 of 2024 Nourin Halder Vs.
State of West Bengal & Ors.
Mr. Shamim Ul Bari Ms. Asmita Mitras ....for the petitioner Mr. D N Maiti Mr. A Santra ....for respondent no. 3 Mr. Abir Sarkar ....for the WBNC Mr. Sirsanya Bandopadhyay Mr. Ritesh Kr. Ganguly ....for the State Mr. Nilotpal Chatterjee ....for the INC
1. The petitioner, an aspiring nurse had taken admission into the college which is the respondent no. 6 herein without sitting for the entrance examination for the session 2023-2024. The college authorities had accorded admission to the petitioner de hors the provisions of the entrance examination.
2. This anomalous situation was noticed by the university, which immediately took steps and debarred the petitioner from continuing with her course any further.
3. Thus, aggrieved, the petitioner has approached this Court. The fact that the entrance examination for an ealier session had not been held and that the college was permitted to admit students without such an examination, does not bestow the petitioner herein
with a right to get admitted to a college without sitting for, the entrance examination, especially when other students have gone through the process of admission by way of entrance examination.
4. It is rather strange that the petitioner was admitted into the college without following the rules which should be applicable for everybody applying for a seat in the college, which cannot be condoned in any manner. The Hon'bnle Supreme Court in the case of Uma Devi has categorically deprecated the practice of backdoor entrance in the colleges and educational institutions.
5. There is admittedly, no notification by the state government for the academic session 2023-3024, to waive the entrance examination to such institutions.
6. In this circumstance aforestated, I find no reason to entertain the writ petition, which is accordingly dismissed.
7. However, there shall be no order as to costs. (Reetobroto Kumar Mitra, J.)
