ICAI CA Examination : Plea Seeking Postponement/ Opt Out Option, Extra Chance:Supreme Court Hearing- LIVE UPDATES

Adv. Bansuri Swaraj: Last time they made available an opting out scheme. They allowed it last time on self assessment and self declaration. I wanted to bring this to your notice. 

Bench: You are not obliging the institute by appearing in the exam. It is voluntary. You can’t make the institute responsible for your problems and issues. 

Adgaonkar: As far as tests of staff is concerned, they are saying that they can’t do that for them as well.

Bench: You are not concerned with the examination being held. You are bringing up non-issues. 

Bench: With regard to movement, logistical issues are your responsibility. Present a representation to competent authority. Don’t give us issues like this. There will be authority who will accept or reject.

Bench: You can’t go creating classes after classes. That issue is related to a matter before another court. We are only concerned with the matter related to the examination. You are going beyond that.

Adv. Shashibhushan Adgaonkar: One issue is about vaccination.

Bench: Can this possibility be passed to the institute ?

Adgaonkar: On the basis of admit card, can priority be given to the students for vaccination ?

Bench: If that happens, please come to us with a formal application. We will pass better strictures. You can come here then.

Arora: That message is more than enough.

Arora: Last point is now for declaration of the results. Some students had approached the HC and the institute found it defamatory and did not declare the results. It was only after the intervention of the Court that results were declared. Let’s not have a repeat of that.

Bench: You are asking for too much. That’s a part of the exam. We cannot change it. 

Arora: Last issue is that the matter of articleship. Some will pass the exam, but many have not been able to do the articleship.
