The petitioner Schalka Tyagi while referring to the advertisements in different newspapers said the organisers have rescheduled the examination for only those candidate who were not able to appear it on May 1 which is arbitrary, illegal and unjust.
An AIEEE candidate, who sat for the exam after a delay of three hours due to question paper leak on May 1, today approached the Delhi High Court seeking a direction to allow her to appear in the rescheduled test, saying she was forced to give the entrance examination in adverse conditions.
Filing a petition through counsel R K Saini and Sitab Ali Chaudhary, the petitioner Schalka Tyagi while referring to the advertisements in different newspapers said the organisers have rescheduled the examination for only those candidate who were not able to appear it on May 1 which is arbitrary, illegal and unjust.
She submitted that she was not given information about the rescheduling of the exam and was compelled to give the exam under adverse conditions and circumstances which is violative of fundamental rights.
Tyagi pleaded that she should be allowed to appear in the examination rescheduled for May 11.
She was not given any option to chose to appear in the next date of examination, the petition said, adding she and other students were treated in a cruel, indifferent and insensitive manner and they have been discriminated by the organisers.
The petition is likely to be listed for hearing tomorrow.
Last Sunday, the All India Engineering Entrance Examination organised by CBSE was delayed by three hours following a paper leak. The exam was scheduled at 9.30 AM but was rescheduled to begin at 12 noon on the same day.
The question paper was reportedly being sold in the open market in Lucknow and a man was arrested by the Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force.
The organisers have fixed another examination on May 11 only for those aspirants who were not able to appear on Sunday and restrained the students who have already appeared the exam.
