(1.) Both the petitions involving identical issue were heard together at joint request of parties and are being decided by common order.
(2.) CWP-2335/2009 was jointly filed by nine petitioners but Sunil Yadav withdrew his name from the array of petitioners, which was deleted; and now there remains only eight petitioners who are students of MBA on being admitted for academic session-2008-09 against 15% management quota in respondent-5 (Institute of Engineering & Technology, Alwar).
(3.) At the same time, CWP-2336/2009 has been jointly filed by three petitioners who took admission in MBA against management quota in respondent-5 (Alwar Institute of Engineering & Technology). However, their common grievance is that despite being eligible for seeking admission to MBA in academic session 2008-09, respondent-University took technical plea that since institutions failed to send their respective forms on or before due date fixed, as per last counselling having taken place on 19/11/2008, they could not be considered to be eligible to participate in the course which they joined in respective institutions.
