The high court said constitutional courts cannot be expected to view CCTV footage for each such candidate who has been prejudiced on account of loss of exam time for no fault of his.

Such cases ought to be examined by a body of experts in a transparent and fair manner, Justice Vikas Mahajan said while granting liberty to the standing committee to devise a formula more suitable for the examination.
