JUDGMENT : The defects as pointed out by the office are ignored. The present writ petition has been filed for issuance of direction upon the respondent nos. 3, 4 and 5 to take steps for re-evaluation of the petitioner’s answer sheet with respect to JTET Examination held on 20.11.2016 for Level-1 (L1- Class 1 to 5). 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner appeared in the aforesaid examination having Roll No. 1041952 (Application No. 372601) and got 89 marks (59.33%). She could not apply for re-evaluation of her examination answer sheet due to serious illness. 3. Admittedly, the aforesaid examination was conducted on 20.11.2016. According to the petitioner, she is quite confident that 89 marks (59.33%) awarded to her in the said examination is much less than what she is actually entitled. Except making the said statement, she has not stated anything as to on what basis she feels that she has secured more marks in the said examination than what she has been awarded to her. A copy of the medical certificate dated 05.02.2019 (Annexure-4 to the writ petition) issued by one Rajiv Nayan Prasad, Medical Officer, Sub-Divisional Hospital Barsoi, Katihar, suggests that she was suffering from Infective Hepatitis (Jaundice) from 25.01.2017 to 05.02.2019 due to which she was unable to do any physical or mental work. Though this Court does not wish to make any comment on the said medical certificate issued by the doctor, yet the same cannot be treated to be a conclusive piece of evidence so as to prove that the petitioner so critically ill or was throughout hospitalised during the said period (about three years) due to which she could not make any application seeking re-evaluation of examination answer sheet. Otherwise also, nothing has been brought on record by the petitioner to suggest that there is any rule/regulation permitting the examinee to apply for re-evaluation of the answer sheet. 4. Hence, I see no reason to entertain the present writ petition. The same is accordingly dismissed.
