Student Declaring That He Read Info Available Online Can't Claim Violation Of Natural Justice: Allahabad HC Upholds Cancellation Of Admission
Live LawThe Allahabad High Court has held that a student who has made a declaration that he has read information available online cannot claim violation of principles of natural justice at the time of admission cancellation based on the rules stated in the brochure which was available online with the form. It was also submitted that Admit Card specifically states that “Admit Card does not necessarily mean acceptance of eligibility, the documents regarding eligibility to be scrutinised subsequently.” The Court observed that the criteria of cut-off above 70marks was mentioned in the brochure available online and it could be applied only once all application forms had been processed. Admittedly, the petitioner did not have score equal to or more than the last candidate in the subject category which was 70.” The bench comprising Justice Anjani Kumar Mishra and Justice Jayant Banerji held that the petitioner having scored less was illegible for admission.
