Ranjan’s father had wrote several letters to Joint Seat Allocation Authority for an extension of time indicating the poor condition of the petitioner and her family. However, all the efforts went in vain as they didn’t receive any reply from the authority.

The bench of Justice Dinesh Kumar Singh directed the Joint Seat Allocation Authority and IIT, BHU to provide admission of the student in the mathematics and computing, five years, bachelor and master of technology course. The court also asked the BHU to allot a supernumerary seat for the Dalit student if no vacant seat is available.

The Judge acknowledged the bright academic results of the student and ordered to give money to the student as the financial condition of the student was not stable because of her father’s kidney disease.

“The petitioner has not been able to pay meagre amount of ₹15000 for seat acceptance as her father has been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease and he has been advised to go for a kidney transplant. The father of the petitioner has to undergo dialysis twice a week to survive.”
