Judgment & Decree
Farooq Bedar Add1.A: G., Pb. for Respondent No.l. Syed Mansoor Ali for Respondent No
3. Abdul Hayee Mansoor for Respondent No.4. Date of hearing: 7th March, 1993. This petition under Article 199 of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, 1973, has been filed by the petitioner alleging that he has been meted out discriminatory treatment as respondents Nos.3 and 4 have been granted admission to a Medical College in Lahore in preference to the petitioner.
2. It is conceded by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner already stands admitted to a Medical College and is at present undergoing his studies in Punjab Medical College, Faisalabad. His grievance, however, is that as respondents Nos.3 and 4 are not disabled persons they could not be admitted against seats reserved for disabled and if they are excluded, the result would be that the petitioner would be entitled to admission in a Medical College in Lahore.
3. The grievance voiced appears to be very remote and we are not inclined to exercise our discretionary jurisdiction in favour of the petitioner. Whatever be the merits, the fact remains that the petitioner stands admitted to a Medical College and is undergoing studies in Faisalabad for last about 1‑1/2 years. Similarly respondents Nos3 and 4 by this time are in Second Year of M.B.,B.S. It would neither be fair nor just to disturb the admission at this stage. .
4. The learned counsel for the petitioner prays that the respondents be directed to allow migration of the petitioner from Faisalabad to Lahore. We are not in a position to grant this request of the petitioner and would suffice by observing that the petitioner may apply to the concerned authorities in this behalf. Such an application, if filed, shall be disposed of after giving it due consideration in accordance with the rules. With the above observations this petition is dismissed with no order as to costs. H.B.T./M‑924/L. Petition dismissed.
