Patna High Court rejects PIL seeking exemption from attending classes for LLB Course
The Patna High Court rejected a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) filed seeking a direction to Respondent No. 1 (Chancellor of University) to consider his (Petitioner’s) representation seeking an exemption sought from attending the classes for the LLB course, since he is employed in the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya.
The representation demand that the Chancellor pass an order on his request for exemption after which he will seek admission to a college in any of the Universities within the State of Bihar for admission to the LLB course.
The petitioner is a Science Teacher in Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya, District Garhwa, State of Jharkhand.
The Division Bench of Chief Justice K. Vinod Chandran and Justice Rajiv Roy said that the representation is misguided and there can be no consideration of the same. The further arguments are with respect to an R.T.I. application, which again cannot be sought to be agitated in a public interest litigation.
The Court pertinently observed that there is no public interest either in the exemption sought for or the prayers made under the R.T.I. Act. The petitioner is purely raising a personal issue; which also by the way the request is couched, is misconceived.
