Unless Clearly Stated In The Ad That Qualifications Are Relaxable, Allowing Admission To Student With Inferior Qualifications Amounts To Fraud On The Public: Bombay HC

Live Law  

The Bombay High Court on Wednesday dismissed a writ petition filed by a 23-year-old student belonging to the reserved category who was held ineligible for admission in the Masters course in Human Resource Development at Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management despite securing admission, as she did not qualify the criteria of securing 55% in 12th standard. Having successfully crossed the various hurdles on the way for securing admission, the institute granted the petitioner admission only at a later stage to deprive her of the fruits of her labour on the ground that she had not secured 55% at the Higher Secondary level examination, the plea states. While referring to the decision of the Delhi High Court in the case of Javed Akhtar vs. Jamia Hamdard, she submitted that the decision of the institute to revoke the petitioner's admission at this stage would work out serious prejudice in her academic pursuit and there being absolutely no fault on her part, the impugned communication ought to be quashed with further direction on the institute to permit her pursue the course without interruption. The bench observed- "Despite being well aware of the marks obtained by her at the Higher Secondary level examination, i.e., 51%, the petitioner took a chance of admission.
