The court directed the university authorities to reexamine the answer paper within one month after it receives the copy of the hearing. The verdict came following the filing of a writ petition with the High Court in 2002. The complainant Abdul Mannan Bhuiyan got second class first position in the examination with only 32 marks in Administrative Law. So, he applied to the vice-chancellor on October 24, 2000 to have his answer paper reexamined. But having no response from the university authorities, he filed the writ petition. Abdul Mannan has already passed LLM examination securing first class first position.
