Order 15/09/2025
1. This intra-court appeal is filed aggrieved of order dated 07.10.2023 passed by the learned Single Judge in SBCWP No.10558/2023.
2. Operative part of the order is reproduced below:-
“The petitioner himself was negligent in not submitting the correct details with regard to year of his admission in class 5th, class 6th are still lying vacant, therefore, in the facts and circumstances of the present case and also considering the
[2025:RJ-JP:37312-DB] (2 of 2) [SAW-1112/2023] fact that the matter relates to admission of student in class 6th, I deem it just and proper to invoke extra-ordinary jurisdiction of this court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. In that view of the matter, this writ petition is partly allowed and the respondents are directed to consider the case of the petitioner to give him admission in class 6th if any seat is left out after exhausting the waiting list for admission in class 6th in the school for which he has applied.”
3.
Learned counsel for the appellant on instructions submits that the appellant inspite of the writ petition being allowed and there was no stay in the intra-court appeal has not turned up for getting admission in class 6th at the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya, Jatnagla, Sooroth, District Karauli.
4. In view of the subsequent developments, the appeal is
disposed of as infructuous.
5. However, the appellant shall be at liberty to file an application for revival in case cause of action so arises.
