\"scmid\"<\/a>In the latest news on the PIL filed against IIT and the CBSE, the Delhi High Court has clearly dismissed it as withdrawn. The PIL was filed against the CBSE and IIT to stop them from conducting engineering entrance examinations on the basis of JEE-Main and JEE-Advanced.<\/p>\n

\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cThe petition is dismissed as withdrawn,\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d confirmed Chief G. Rohini and justice R.S. Endlaw.<\/p>\n

The Delhi High Court has officially allowed the petitioner (Pushpanjali Das) to withdraw the plea and file again if need be along with appropriate forum under the law.<\/p>\n

\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cHow are you aggrieved by the whole matter? No student has come forward and filed any petition in this regard,\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d the court said before dismissing the petition.<\/p>\n

In her PIL, Pushpanjali Das had demanded the CBSE and all 16 IITs to \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cre-conduct JEE (Main), 2014 within a week\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s time and not on multiple days.\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d She also demanded the CBSE and the IITs to be not allowed to carry on the JEE examination as different sets of question papers, which would be held on different dates, will not provide equal opportunities to all students.<\/p>\n

\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cThe petition is directed against CBSE and 16 IITs for subjecting young deserving students to discrimination in the competitive examinations whereby an entrance examination in the same year is being conducted over multiple days with different set of questions,\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d said Pushpanjali Das.<\/p>\n

\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cThis results in questions of varying levels of difficulty on each day, as a result an average student may score more marks thereby denying a deserving student a chance of getting admission in prestigious premium Institutes of India,\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d the petition had said.<\/p>\n

\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cThe CBSE, since 2002, started independent engineering entrance examination known as AIEEE for admission to 30 NITs and 5 IIITs. In the year 2012, Human Resources Development Minister Kapil Sibal proposed \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cOne Nation, One Test\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d formula for the engineering entrance examination. However, later it was agreed that IITs be allowed to conduct their own examination separately but only for those first 1,50,000 students, who qualify AIEEE based on some cut-off marks,\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d the petition had said.<\/p>\n
