Hyderabad: Expressing displeasure at the authorities for delaying admissions into language pandit institutions for 2018-19, the Hyderabad High Court on Monday directed the principal secretary and the chairman, Language Pandits Common Entrance Test and Director of School Education to complete the counselling within four weeks.
Justice A. Rajasheker Reddy was dealing with a petition by Mr S. Balaraju and four others challenging the action of the authorities in not conducting counselling despite holding the LPCET on May 16, and its results on June 3, as illegal.
Mr Arjun Kumar, counsel for the petitioner, told the court that the authorities had not conducted the LPCET for the past two academic years. This time they had conducted the test only after the intervention of the court and were now dodging counselling.
While questioning the authorities for delaying the counselling and making the students to roam around courts, the judge directed completion of the counselling process within four weeks.
