8 We have considered the syllabus that has been annexed to the petition i.e. of the State Government in the annexures A and B to the appropriate government resolutions and to the syllabi of the course undertaken by the Dr.Babasaheb Ambedkar Open University. Perusal extensively of these subjects which the University imparts for the purposes of granting such certificates cannot be said to be in any manner different for the purposes of extending the benefit of computer proficiency. Merely because the subjects have been worded differently or the words of the syllabi have been named in a different manner, it cannot be said that the subjects that were undertaken for C/SCA/13124/2019 JUDGMENT DATED: 21/09/2022 giving computer proficiency by the Dr.Babasaheb Ambedkar Open University were different and not in co-existence with the syllabi prescribed by the State Government.

9 Essentially what was important and what is the spirit behind such computer proficiency is that an employee of the state government is well equipped to manage the computers. Reading of the syllabi of both, the government and that of the Dr.Babasaheb Ambedkar Open University would certainly lead us to believe that it cannot be held that the proficiency course undertaken and the certificate issued pursuant to the training undertaken at the Dr.Babasaheb Ambedkar Open University cannot be accepted by the government, merely on the ground that the Open University awarded a syllabus of 400 marks whereas the prescribed course was of 100 marks. This ground appears to be not germane for the purposes for which the certificate was issued.
