One of the lists was pertaining to the students who could pay the penalty and take-up the examinations and the other list depicting the students who were not eligible to take examinations.

(3.) It was alleged that after notifying the lists, he made use of this delicate situation by seeking illegal gratification and had permitted even ineligible students to take up the examinations without bringing it to the notice of the Management.
