Judgment 1. The petitioner appeared in the post-Graduate Medical Admission Test, 1987, for admission into post-Graduate degree/ diploma course of the different Medical College of the State of Bihar.

The petitioner did not find his Roll Number in the merit list. The petitioner expected at least 75% marks, whereas the persons securing 71% marks were found in the merit list.
