JUDGMENT

Rajiv Shakdher, J.(Oral)--The substantive prayers made in the writ petition are as follows:

"(a) declare all the options of question no. 80 in the examination UGC-NET, 2019 as wrong and direct Respondent no. 2 to setting aside the alleged correct answer key with ID No. 646350107270, by cancelling the question and awarding equal number to all the examinees accordingly;

(b) direct Respondent no. 2 to consider the objections dated 03.07.2019 lodged by the Petitioner and redraw the result accordingly."

2. Upon notice being issued, counter-affidavits have been filed by the respondents. Concededly, the contesting respondent is respondent no.1 i.e. the National Testing Agency (N.T.A.).

3. The controversy in the present case falls in a narrow compass. The petitioner is aggrieved by the fact that although in terms of the leeway given by the N.T.A., he raised objections to the answers uploaded on N.T.A.'s website with regard to Question Nos.19 and 80, he obtained only partial relief.

3.1. Notably, the N.T.A., while conceding that the petitioner was right in pointing out the error in the answer-key uploaded qua Question no.19, has declined to accept the petitioner's objection vi
