The court said even if the challenging petition notification was not submitted, this was a fit case for the court to take the notification of Suo Motu (itself).
“If CET is permitted, then a large number of students will be exposed and will face threats to life.
This will have a cascading effect,” the bench said in its order.
The court canceled and set aside May 28 notification issued by the government, which said the CET would be held for all 10th grade students on all boards, based on which they could choose the preferred university when taking a ticket to class 11.
According to the notice, those who do not want to appear for CET will be accepted by their 10th grade aggregate.
The High Court on Tuesday directed the state government to begin student admissions for grade 11 by considering their 10th grade values and internal assessments, and completed the receipt process within a period of six weeks.
HC passed the order on the petition submitted by Patki, a Mumbai Ies Orion school student, affiliated with a blackboard, and a request for intervention submitted by four IGCSE students.
The petition is described as “discriminatory” the state government’s decision to hold CET.
Advocate General Ashutosh Kumbhakoni previously argued that revenue would be given to all students, but those who want their chosen colleges must take CET.
Advocate Yogesh Patki, the Petitioner’s father, has told HC that the decision was taken in the “haphazard way” and the exam date was delivered on “short notification” on July 19.
It violates article 14 and 21 constitutions and will cause problems as students who are not vaccinated in the age group 15-16 must appear for offline exams, he said.
Kumbhakoni, who represented the Maharashtra government, said the country was competent to issue CET notifications, namely “optional” and will be done by following all Covid-19 protocols.
He said 10.75 lakh students had registered for CET, which included a large number of CBSE students.
