HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD WRIT - C No. - 36674 of 2026 Court No. - 38 HON'BLE VINOD DIWAKAR, J. 1. Heard counsel for the petitioner, Shri Kartikeya Saran, learned counsel for the respondent-University and learned standing counsel representing the State-respondents. 2. The present writ petition has been preferred for issuance of a direction in the nature of mandamus commanding the respondent-University to award the degree of B.Sc.AG to petitioner forthwith, within stipulated time. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has successfully passed the B.Sc. (Ag.) examination and qualified all the semesters. As per the curriculum, the petitioner was required to appear in Course No. UGS-112, Elementary Mathematics (Remedial). However, the University conducted the examination in Introductory Biology instead. Though the petitioner passed the said subject and was promoted, the report card incorrectly reflects UGS-111, Elementary Mathematics (Remedial), with zero marks. The petitioner's promotion and Grade-C in the academic session 2022-23 demonstrate that he had passed the examination. The petitioner has completed all formalities for award of the B.Sc. (Ag.) degree, but the degree has not yet been issued. Learned counsel, therefore, prays for a direction to the respondent-University to issue the B.Sc. (AG) degree to the petitioner within a stipulated period. 4. Shri Kartikeya Saran, learned counsel for the respondent-University, submits that the petitioner was required to pass the subject of Elementary Mathematics (Remedial) as per the prescribed curriculum. Since the Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : Mayank Chaturvedi, Surendra Kumar Chaubey Counsel for Respondent(s) : A.S.G.I., Kartikeya Saran, Manoj Kumar Singh, Pooja Agarwal Nirmit Yadav .....Petitioner(s) Union Of India And 2 Others .....Respondent(s) petitioner has not passed the said subject, he has not fulfilled the required academic qualification and, therefore, the University cannot issue the B.Sc. (AG) degree to him at this stage. 5. In view of the facts and circumstances of the case, the present writ petition is finally disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to file a representation before the respondent-University, raising all his grievances and enclosing the relevant documents, within three weeks from today. In case such a representation is filed, the respondent-University shall decide the same, in accordance with the applicable statutes, rules and relevant provisions of the University, by a reasoned and speaking order, preferably within a period of three months from the date of production of a certified copy of this order.
