The petitioner seeks a Mandamus for re-valuation of the descriptive answers in the Main Examination for selection of Civil Judge - Direct Recruitment for Puducherry Union Territory. 2. The notification issued by the High Court calling for applications makes it clear that no re-valuation or re-totalling of the marks in the Preliminary as well as the Main Examination will be entertained. Moreover, the valuation of the Main Examination was done by the District Judges and it is the discretion of the valuer to award marks. This Court sitting under Article 226 jurisdiction will not interfere with the discretion of the valuer/ examiner. A similar view has been expressed by the Division Bench of this Court in the order made in W.P.No.12671 of 2024 dated 20.06.2024. -------------------- Page No.: 2 of 5 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.No.8977 of 2025 -------------------------- 3.
