1. Amongst the innumerable Writ Petitions, which stems from the School Kalotsavam, this one is peculiar and is of a grievous nature. The allegation levelled by the petitioner is one with respect to the competence of one among the three Judges in the panel. The conduct of the said Judge is grievously alarming to the extent that a candidate, who otherwise performed poorly in the estimation of two other Judges, has been given 10 marks by the 3rd Judge, whose competence is at stake, with the result, the said candidate had emerged successful at the first position, to the detriment of the other candidates, who were estimated to have performed well by the two other Judges.

2. This Court wanted the matter to be addressed in detail. Accordingly, Sri. P. Santhosh Kumar, learned Special Government Pleader has appeared. He would hand over a declaration given by the 3rd Judge by name Sreekutty Vinod, wherein her educational qualification is seen stated as B. A. Mohiniyattam, with a Diploma in Kuchi
