2. A direction is sought on the respondent no. 3- Vice-Chancellor to appoint an observer to the elections to be held of the petitioner- Committee of Management. It is stated that in terms of the office
order dated 21.11.2019 bearing no. Affiliation/4261, the University is enjoined to appoint an observer at least 15 days prior to the scheduled elections. It is stated that in pursuance of the provisions of the aforesaid office order, by means of the letter dated 24.2.2025, the Secretary of the petitioner- Committee of Management sent an application to the Assistant Registrar (Affiliation) of the respondent-University asking for an observer to be appointed as the term of the Committee of Management was till
27.3.2025. Along with the aforesaid letter, the approval letter dated 29.8.2022 issued by the University approving the Committee of Management was also enclosed.

On the basis of the instructions received, Shri Avneesh Tripathi, Advocate appearing for the University has produced a letter of 26.5.2025, that is yesterday, in which the petitioner has been asked to submit a duly registered list of members of the general body. It has also been mentioned that other documents submitted by the petitioner are incomplete. This letter of 26.5.2025 is taken on record.
4. This letter of 26.5.2025, in the opinion of the Court, does not reflect any gravity on the part of the respondent- University which is expected to seriously respond to the letter of 24.2.2025 moved
by the petitioner. It does not specify that other than the list of general body members of the society, what is the deficiency in the other documents that have been submitted by the petitioner and what documents have been submitted. This letter has been cursorily drafted and does not meet the approval of the Court.
5. Be that as it may, without entering into the merits of the matter, this Court deem it fit to dispose of this petition with a direction to the respondent- University to consider and pass appropriate order on the representation of the petitioner dated 28.4.2025 that is enclosed as Annexure No. 8 to the writ petition, expeditiously and preferably, within a period of two weeks from the date a certified copy of this order is filed before it.
