The petitioner has come up with the present writ petition for a Mandamus, directing the 1st respondent herein to forthwith issue the revised order copy, changing her category from backward community to other backward class community, pursuant to the order of this Court dated 29.9.2016 passed in W.P.No.31388 of 2016.
2.According to the petitioner, she belongs to Hindu Kaikolar Community, which falls under the Category of Other Backward Class. However, while applying for NEET Examination, she notified her category as General Category instead of OBC, due to inadvertent mistake. Immediately, she approached the first respondent and requested to change her category, which was refused. Hence, she filed a writ petition in WP.No.31388 of 2016, which, by order dated 29.9.2016, was allowed, by directing the first respondent to treat the petitioner as per her communal status and pass appropriate orders. Pursuant to the same, the first respondent changed the category of the petitioner, due to which, she was admitted in MBBS course at the fourth respondent Institute. Be that as it may, by a letter dated 08.02.2017, the third respondent has requested the fourth respondent to send the revised result of the petitioner as per the communal status issued by the first respondent, so as to enable them to register the petitioner in MBBS course, failing which, the petitioner will be discharged from the course and she will not be registered with the University. Immediately, the petitioner sent a representation to the first respondent on 16.02.2017 to issue a revised order copy of NEET 2016. Since there was no response on the said representation, she made another representation dated 11.04.2017, which was not considered by the first respondent so far. Hence, this writ petition.
