The student, Purva Wagh, a resident of Pune, has approached the court through advocate Rahul Kamerkar, claiming that she had secured admission in the result of Group A courses. However, because the result of round-3 of Group B courses was declared before the Group A results, the petitioner is now barred from participating in further rounds.
