Shimla, Jul 18 (UNI) The Himachal High Court today adjourned the hearing in the HP Combined Pre-Medical Test (HPCPMT) case for tomorrow after hearing the arguments of the petitioner and the respondents.
In its oral order, the court observed that its intention was that the purity of the examination should be maintained at all cost, saying mere suspicion would be enough for ordering a re-examination.
The orders were passed on a petition filed by the Action Committee of Aggrieved Students and Parents after an enquiry report submitted in its report to the court on July 14, indicated that the doubts raised by the unsuccessful students about possible irregularities in the test were not unfounded.
The court had on that day sought the HP University Vice Chancellor's views on the issue after going through the report.
Expressing surprise that the successful students were being doubted over the wrong answers given by them, the counsel for the successful candidates said that the inquiry report had not given any evidence of a paper leak.
While the counsel for the petitioner contended that the suspicion was not due the questions wrongly attempted by the successful students but the same choice of the attempted question was baffling following which the enquiry committee members were asked to come to the court.
Thereafter the inquiry committee appeared in the court and explained that the students falling in first pattern have not attempted the similar wrong questions but have also given the same wrong choice for the same questions.
The court later adjourned the matter for tomorrow after the arguments for both the sides remained inconclusive.
