The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court (SC) on Sunday (14 July) rejected the leave-to-appeal petition against the High Court (HC) order that cancelled the admission of 169 class one students of Viqarunnisa Noon School and College (VNSC) in academic year 2024 for breaching the age limit policy.
The SC order means the admission of 169 class one students of the VNSC will remain cancelled, said the lawyers.
The school authorities earlier cancelled these admissions to Class I in the 2024 academic year for breaching the age limit policy.
The leave-to-appeal on behalf of the affected students was dismissed on Sunday by an appellate bench led by Chief Justice Obaidul Hassan.
Lawyer Mohammad Rafiul Islam stood for the principal of Viqarunnisa Noon School and College at the hearing this morning, and Lawyer Shamim Sardar represented the two parents who filed the writ petitions.
"The parents of the students had filed two separate leave-to-appeal applications against the High Court's decision to cancel the admissions of 169 students," explained Lawyer Mohammad Rafiul Islam.
"After reviewing both applications, the Appellate Division dismissed them today. Therefore, the school's decision to cancel the admissions of 169 students will remain in effect," he added.
Now, those on the waiting list will have the opportunity to secure admission to these 169 seats.
