For Petitioner : M/s.R.Harihara Selvan M/s.Isaac Chambers For Respondents : Mr.P.T.Thiraviam Government Advocate for R1 and R2 Mr.A.S.Vaigunth for R4 * * * * * ORDER The present writ petition has been filed by an Educational Institution running Naturopathy and Yoga Medical College seeking to quash the order passed by the fourth respondent herein on 13.05.2025 and for a mandamus to direct the University to register the admission of 39 students in BNYS course under lapsed seat category in the petitioner's College for the academic year

2024-2030.

2. The petitioner's college was granted affiliation by the fourth respondent University on 29.07.2024 for admitting 100 students under BNYS degree course. As per the regulations of the fourth respondent University, out of 100 students, 65 students would be allotted under the Government quota and 35 would be allotted under management quota. However, all the 100 students would get the allotment order only from the selection committee.

3. In the academic year 2024-2025, out of 65 students under the Government quota, the selection committee has sponsored only 32 candidates. Out of management quota of 35 candidates, 34 of them got admitted in the college by getting allotment orders from the selection committee. Out of the total 65 students, 5 of them have left the college. Therefore, the total strength of the college was remaining at 61. No other candidate was sponsored by the selection committee for admission to the college. Therefore, there was lapse of

39 seats. The Management had proceeded to admit 39 students.

4. Under the impugned order, the fourth respondent University has directed the college management to discharge all the 39 students solely on the ground that they have been admitted without any allotment order of the competent authority concerned. This order is put to challenge in the present writ petition.

5. According to the learned counsel appearing for the writ petitioner, there is no allegation that any one of the candidates who received allotment orders from the selection committee were not admitted. In such an event, no meritorious candidates got affected. In case, if 39 seats were permitted to get lapsed, there will be huge financial loss to the management. Only taking into consideration of these facts, the 39 students got admitted by the management without allotment order from the selection committee. He further submits that by way of impugned order of this Court in W.M.P(MD)No.23881 of 2025, stu
