ACJ SV Gangapurwala: How are you affected? Is your child appearing?

Petitioner counsel: No my child isn’t appearing. They usually announce 4 months prior in time.
But this year they have not. Also the eligibility criteria of 75% in HSC we are challenging. This wasn’t there.
Adv Rui Rodrigues for Ministry: 75% is for admission to IIT. It is not for this exam. This is for higher mark of excellence. There is a para in the petition which is misleading.

#BombayHighCourt
Rodrigues: It is at the time of admission that they consider the score.
Not during the exam.

#BombayHighCourt
Court: Where are the rules for the exams? We have to see how the rules are unfair. How can you saying they are unfair. How can you file petition without rules which you have challenged?

You place those on record.
Petitioner lawyer: milords may keep it on Monday, I will file tomorrow.

Court: You should have filed with the petition.

Matter on January 10.
