13. Learned counsel for the third respondent college submitted that the Transfer Certificate was issued only on 09.11.2010 by the Principal of American College, Madurai and therefore, at that time, when the petitioner claims to have been admitted in the third respondent college, he was undergoing B.Sc computer science course in American College, Madurai and therefore, the petitioner was not admitted in the third respondent college, and according to him, the petitioner was only allowed to attend classes on condition that necessary fees would be collected lateron, and that the admission would be confirmed only after the production of original certificates, which includes certificate of Guardianship, as per G.O.Ms.No.162 Higher Education (JI) Department dated 02.06.2009.

20. Heard the learned counsel appearing for the parties and perused the materials available on record.

21. The main issue is as to whether the petitioner was admitted to B.E.-Computer Science Engineering (CSE) in the third respondent college. It is the case of the petitioner that he joined B.Sc computer science in American College, Madurai in the year 2009. Column No.5 of the transfer certificate, issued by American College, Madurai, makes it clear that the petitioner has discontinued the second year B.Sc. Computer Science course and left the college on 07.05.2010. Para No.9 of the counter affidavit filed by the Principal of Christian college of Engineering and Technology, Dindigul District, states that she joined as Principal of the third respondent college on 04.06.2010. The petitioner came to the college in person on 20.05.2010 during the tenure of her predecessor and claimed admission to B.E. Computer Science under NRI quota. Further, she filled up the pro-forma meant for new entrants. While the petitioner was asked to produce the original certificates viz., +2 Mark Sheet, Transfer Certificate, Community Certificate, legally declared Guardianship Certificate, under the provisions of the Guardian and Wards Act 1890, he informed that he would produce the same, within a short span of time. He has paid a token advance of Rs.5000/-. Except, the legally declared Guardianship Certificate and Transfer Certificate, he has produced a xerox copy of +2 mark sheet. He was informed that admission would be confirmed only after the production of the aforesaid original certificates. It is also the case of the Principal that the petitioner has represented that it would take some more time for him to produce the original certificates insisted by the third respondent college. The Principal of the College has categorically admitted in the counter affidavit that the petitioner was allowed to attend the classes from the beginning of the semester, i.e., from 18th August 2010, on condition that necessary fees would be collected and that admission would be confirmed only after the production of original certificates.
