The petitioner is before this Court seeking for the following reliefs:

(a) Issue a writ of mandamus directing the 1st respondent to conduct revaluation of the pathology paper – 2 held on 25th Feb., 2022 – Question paper – Code 1027, (Register NO.19M1090) (2nd year – Annual Exam – March – 2022) (MBBS – 2019 – Competency Based Medical Education Batch) in terms of Graduate Medical Regulations, 1977 and including deviation valuation between the valuers, since the difference is more than 50 percent in 1st and 2nd question, before 05.05.2022, in the interest of justice and equity.

b) Declare the 2nd valuer marks is not in consonance with the first valuer and consequently the revaluation is just and necessary in the interest of justice and equity.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is a student of II year MBBS, took her examination in Feb.2022 but was unsuccessful in two papers.
