short ANM course) and passed out successfully in the

month of November 2011 securing 79.7o/o. She has paid

prescribed fees of Rs.1,10,000/- to the institution, but

insisted to pay the fee. In the year 2011, there was a job

she could not apply for the job. Had she apptied, she

would have get the job in hospitals and get monthly

salary of Rs.15,000/- to Rs.20,000/_. She has suffered

loss of income on account of withholding of her

complaint. She has no locus standi to file

complaint.

to avoid the same she has filed the complaint. There is

no deficiency in service and sought for dismissal of the

complaint.
