Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the admission process for the B.T.C. Entrance Examination was based on merit, as evidenced by the higher marks of Dhiraj Kumar Mishra (159.34) compared to Anand Singh (147.64). The Court found that the waiting list was prepared according to roll numbers, not merit, and thus the admission of Dhiraj Kumar Mishra was justified. Consequently, the Court allowed the appeal, set aside the High Court's orders, and dismissed the writ petition filed by Anand Singh.
