HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT
ALLAHABAD
Court No. - 30
Case :- CONTEMPT APPLICATION (CIVIL)
No. - 1041 of 2016
Applicant :- Pratiksha Singh
Opposite Party :- Ashish Goyal, Principal
Secry., Basic Education
Counsel for Applicant :- Agnihotri Kumar
Tripathi,Anil Kumar Singh
Counsel for Opposite Party :- S.C.
Hon'ble Manoj Misra,J.
These contempt proceedings have been
initiated for violation of the direction
dated 08.10.2015 issued in Writ A No.
48620 of 2015 which reads as under:-
"This writ petition is therefore disposed of
at the admission stage itself with the
consent of learned counsel for the parties
with a direction to the respondent no.1,
Principal Secretary (Basic Education),
Shiksha, U.P. Lucknow to scrutinize and
examine all the OMR/Answer Sheets and
also identify those cases where it has
come on record that the result of even
those candidates have been declared who
have never appeared in the examinations.
This exercise shall be completed within a
period of four months from the date a
certified copy of this order is received in
his office."
The affidavit has been filed by Sri Ashish
Goyal, Principal Secretary (Basic
Education), Govt. of U.P., Lucknow stating
that pursuant to the direction given by
this Court, a meeting of high level officers
was called to ensure compliance and
pursuant to a decision taken in the
meeting, so held, a letter was sent to the
Managing Director, S.K. Printek Data
Create Solution, New Delhi for providing
original OMR Sheets of U.P. TET
Examination-2011 which returned back
with an endorsement that no such firm
exists. In the affidavit, inability has been
expressed to comply with the direction as
the original OMR Sheets were in the
custody of the firm. It has also been stated
that some OMR Sheets have been seized
and they are case property of Case Crime
No. 675 of 2011. In paragraph 14, it has
been stated that due to non-availability of
original OMR Sheets, compliance of the
order dated 08.10.2015 is not possible.
It is quite surprising that when the
bungling was of such a magnitude, instead
of sending a personal messenger to the
agency responsible for processing the
OMR Sheets and maintaining the record
was not approached directly but was
contacted only through a letter which
returned with an endorsement that no
such firm exists and, thereafter, what
efforts were made to trace out the firm
and its office-bearers are not disclosed.
Under the circumstances, this Court
considers it appropriate to direct the
opposite party to file an affidavit
disclosing what efforts were made to trace
out the partners of the firm and if those
firm partners were not traceable whether
any first information report was lodged
against them or not to ensure examination
of the original OMR Sheets, as directed by
this Court.
Let this matter be, therefore, listed on
03rd May, 2016, by which date, the
opposite party will file a better affidavit
disclosing the steps that were taken by
him to ensure compliance of the order
dated 08.10.2015.
