The Bombay High Court on July 11 rejected a petition filed by 154 students against the process of normalisation of marks adopted by the Maharashtra government’s Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell for admission to the 2023 batch of the MBA course.
A Division Bench of Justices Gautam Patel and Neela Gokhale termed the plea as “without substance”, and said that, out of the more than one lakh students who appeared for the examination, only the petitioners had raised objections.
“The 154 petitioners here do not represent the over–one lakh students who appeared for the exams. It is also indeed telling that all the complaints made in the petition have been made only after the exams were held and the results were declared,” the court said.
