A kind judge was charitable enough to deposit the fee of an underprivileged SC student who could not afford to pay it at IIT-BHU after clearing it through JEE-Advanced.
Justice DK Singh of Lucknow Bench of Allahabad High Court paid the fee for Sanskriti Ranjan who is an SC student. The judge contributed Rs 15,000 for her admission to the educational institution.?
According to a report by New Indian Express, the bench of Justice DK Singh issued directives to the Joint Seat Allocation Authority and IIT-BHU to admit the student in mathematics and computing (five years, bachelor and master of technology, dual degree course). The bench also instructed the IIT-BHU authorities to create an extra seat for the SC student if there was no seat available.?
The bench directed the students to report at BHU within three days with all the important documents for admission. The student had requested for some time from Joint Seat Allocation Authority and IIT (BHU) to deposit a Rs 15,000 fee. The plea by Sanskriti mentioned that she belonged to the Scheduled Caste category. The student had scored 95.6 per cent marks in high school and 94 per cent in Class XII. Her petition also said that she had appeared in the JEE for selection in IITs. She cleared the exam and secured 92.77 per cent marks in JEE mains examination and secured her rank at 2062 as an SC category candidate.?
Sanskriti had applied for JEE advanced on September 16, 2021, and cleared it on October 15, 2021, with 1469 ranks in the SC category.?
¡°The petitioner was allotted a seat at IIT-BHU for mathematics and computing in the counselling. However, she could not arrange Rs 15,000 fees to be paid before the scheduled date," stated the petition.
The judge was moved by the petition and decided to pay Rs 15,000 to the student after the court hour. He ensured that she is given admission to the IIT (BHU) in the next three days,?
Considering it to be a peculiar situation, the judge himself volunteered to hand over Rs 15,000 to the student after the court hour and ensured in his order that she is given admission to the IIT (BHU) within the next three days.
