New Delhi, Aug 12 (UNI) The Supreme Court has declined to entertain a writ petition seeking directions to the Department of Technical Education and Training, Madhya Pradesh, to allot seats to general category candidates if NRI candidtaes are not available for 15 per cent seats alloted to them.
A bench comprising Chief Justice K G Balakrishnan and Justice R V Raveendran told the petitioner Kaushal Kishore and others to approach the state government for the relief they are asking for.
Earlier, counsel for the petitioner contended that seats will go waste since NRI candidates were not available and it shall not cause any prejudice to NRIs if the vacant seats were alloted to those candidates who were in the merit list.
The petitioners, however, sought permission to withdraw the petition when the court was not inclined to entertain the same.
The court granted the permission and dismissed the petition as withdrawn.
Counsel for the petitioner had also told the court that about 4,000 students are seeking admissions to various technical educational colleges and the seats earmarked for NRI candidates should not be allowed to remain vacant if NRI candidates are not available and such seats may be given to other candidates in the order of merit.
