Karnataka Government’s Petition on KCET Repeaters Issue 2022
Here are the case details pertaining to Karnataka Government’s petition on KCET repeaters issue 2022 -
Case Number | 889/2022 |
Petition Filed by | The State of Karnataka |
Judge | Honourable Acting Chief Justice and S Vishwajith Shetty |
First Hearing Date | September 15, 2022 |
| Time of Hearing | after 10:30 AM |
On September 3, 2022, the High Court ordered KEA to revise KCET 2022 rankings by providing 50:50 weightage for repeater issues. There are almost 24,000 repeaters in the KCET exam this year and the number of fresher students is 1.85 lakh approximately.
It is most unlikely that a final decision on the KCET repeaters issue 2022 will be taken on September 15. The divisional bench will first go through the previous HC order given by the single judge bench and proceed with arguments. As the respondents are repeater students, arguments are expected to happen again.
As the counselling process of KCET 2022 is already getting delayed, a final decision on the freshers vs repeaters issue is expected as early as possible. On September 14, 2022, KEA released the draft seat matrix for KCET counselling 2022, and public feedback is being invited on the same.
