Maintainability of writ petition barred by Supreme Court's admission-order direction; High Court declined further review and dismissed it.

A writ petition challenging the amended reservation regime was held not maintainable because the Supreme Court had later directed that no further petition or application concerning admissions for the current academic year be entertained. An application seeking clarification of that direction had already been rejected on the ground that the order was clear and required no clarification. The High Court therefore declined to read the Supreme Court's direction differently, since any further scrutiny would have affected the ongoing admission process, and dismissed the petition.

Issues: Whether the writ petition could be entertained in view of the Supreme Court's later order declining clarification of its earlier directions affecting the current admission process.

Analysis: The petition challenged the amended reservation regime, but the Supreme Court had subsequently directed that no further petition or application concerning admission for the present academic year be entertained. An application seeking clarification of that order was rejected on the ground that the order was already clear and required no clarification. In that situation, any further examination of the petition would have directly affected the ongoing admission process, and the High Court declined to interpret the Supreme Court's order differently.

Conclusion: The petition was held to be not maintainable and was dismissed.
