W.P.No.1710 of 2026

For Petitioner: M/s.Rufina.E

For Respondents: Mr.M.Nallathambi, for R1, R2

Mr.S.R.Raghunathan, for R3

O R D E R

The writ petition is filed with a prayer directing the respondents to

consider the representation of petitioner dated 02.01.2026 and permit the

petitioner to take his 7^th semester LLB examination, conducted by the

respondents 1 and 2, along with the 8^th semester examination scheduled to

commence in April-May 2026.

2. Upon hearing the Learned Counsel for the petitioner and perusing the

material records of the case, it can be seen that for the 7^th semester, there was

shortage of attendance and therefore, the petitioner was not permitted to write

the examination. The petitioner is also not attending the 8^th semester. The 8^th

semester classes commenced on 04.12.2025 and already a major portion of the

8^th semester classes are also over, as we are now in the month of February 2026.

W.P.No.1710 of 2026

3. It is true that this Court granted an equitable relief, following the

Hon’ble Delhi High Court judgment in re: Suicide Committed by Sushant

Rohilla, Law Student of I.P. University, to some students who were similarly

situated as that of the petitioner. However, it can be seen that those students

approached the Court immediately after they were prohibited from writing the

examination or sooner thereafter. This student had approached only in January

2026. Therefore, in view of the sheer delay, this Court cannot direct to give him

compensatory classes etc., and therefore, I am unable to interfere in the present

matter.

4. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of. The student shall

continue the course next year as originally directed.

There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected

Miscellaneous Petition is closed.
