This judgment was delivered on 9th september 1986. ( 9 ) THE University has framed regulations. Regulation No. 2 deals with the courses of study and a note to that regulation reads thus :"note : For specialisation each candidate shall choose TWO of the following school subjects : kannada, Marathi, Hindi, Urdu, sanskrit, English, History and Civics, geography, Moral and Spiritual Education, mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, biology. " ( 10 ) REGULATION 5 prescribes the eligibility for admission. " ( 10 ) REGULATION 5 prescribes the eligibility for admission. So far as the interpretation and the binding nature of these regulations are concerned, the matter stands covered by the judgments referred to above. However, the State Government issued an order on 12th of June 1981 prescribing certain requirements of admission for College of Education. This order was subject matter of a decision in Laly v. Bangalore University (ILR 1987 karnataka-page 610 ). The learned single judge referring to the Government's competence to issue such orders made the following observation :"7. 1. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The State Government cannot in the very nature and mode of its formation, be expected to consist of experts in the academic field. Whereas the Academic council consists of such experts (see s. 26 of the Act ). Therefore it is the academic Council which is the proper and fit authority to prescribe qualifications and conditions of eligibility for a student to be admitted to a course of study or for a degree or diploma. It is because of this the Legislature has entrusted this function to the Academio council (see Sections 27 (2) (c) 39 and 57 of the Act ). As per S. 27 (1) of the Act the Academic Council is the academic body of the University. The control and general regulation and the responsibility, of maintenance of the standards of instruction, education and examinations of the University are vested in the Academic Council. As such it is the Academic Council which alone is entitled to prescribe the percentage of marks to be obtained in the final year degree examination to be eligible -for admission to B. Ed. Course. . . . . . . . . . "the point No. (2) which arose for consideration was :" (2) Whether Regulation Nos. 1 and 2 are invalid on the ground that the same are opposed to Government Order dated 12-6-1981 bearing No. ED 38 ubc 81 ?"the above question was answered thus :" 7. 4. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 and 2 are invalid on the ground that the same are opposed to Government Order dated 12-6-1981 bearing No. ED 38 ubc 81 ?"the above question was answered thus :" 7. 4. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Regulations 1 and 2 are not invalid on the ground that the same are opposed to the Government Order dated 12-6-1981 bearing No. ED 38 UBC 81. The, Government Order dated 12-6-1981 can be read only in such a manner so as to be in conformity with subsection (2) of Section 6 of the Act an only giving directions to the University to reserve seats for purposes of admission of students in the colleges or institutions maintained or controlled by it belonging to the classes of persons mentioned in sub-section (2) of Section 6 of the Act and not prescribing the conditions of eligibility for admission to B. Ed. degree examination. "the above elucidation on the competence of the State Government to prescribe qualifications stands concluded by this Judgment. The law laid down in the above judgment makes it clear that the power of the Govt. is restricted to power of reservation in respect of its policy decision in favour of Scheduled castes, Scheduled Tribes and other classes and it has no power to deal with academic matters. ( 11 ) THE Government Order dated 12-6-1981 was followed by Government order No. ED 38 UBC 81, dated 22nd of july 1981 wherein it, is clarified that "the students seeking admission to B. Ed, course should have studied the subjects mentioned in Rule 3 of Revised Rules as optional subjects at the Degree level. " the revised rules referred to in this order are the Rules prescribed in Order No. ED 38 UBC 81, dated 12th June, 1981, which has been considered by this Court in the above judgment. " the revised rules referred to in this order are the Rules prescribed in Order No. ED 38 UBC 81, dated 12th June, 1981, which has been considered by this Court in the above judgment. Thereafter, order bearing No. ED 38 UBC 81 (P), dated 13th August 1981 was issued by the state Government substituting the following paragraphs in the Government Order dated 12th June 1981 and has clarified in government Order dated 22nd July 1981. The substituted paragraph reads thus : ( 21 ) THE petitioner in writ petition no. 6315/1987-K. C. Ramakrishna has suppressed the material information and he is directed to pay cost of Rs. 1,000. 00 to the University.
