Kathmandu. The Supreme Court has explained that the students cannot be deprived of their rights and respect due to the internal slowness or administrative delay of the university. The Supreme Court made the decision on a writ filed after the Purvanchal University decided to leave out the students who scored the best marks at the LLM level and give gold medals to those who scored the lowest marks.
The joint bench of Justices Tek Prasad Dhungana and Srikant Paudel overturned the decision of Purvanchal University and issued an order to award a gold medal to Manita Gurung who scored the highest marks. The full text of the judgment passed by the Supreme Court on January 16, 2082 was made public only recently.
