Asking IIT, Bombay to adopt a humanitarian approach, the Supreme Court on Monday directed the premier engineering institute to allocate within 48 hours a seat to a young Dalit boy, who missed out, as he could not deposit his fees due to the non-functioning of his credit card.
The apex court exercised its plenary powers to direct the IIT, Bombay for allocating a supernumerary seat to the young boy from Allahabad, saying it would be a travesty of justice if he is turned away from the portals of the Supreme Court.
A bench of Justices DY Chandrachud and AS Bopanna said, &ldquo;This court has before it a young Dalit student, who is on the verge of losing a valued seat which has been allocated to him at IIT, Bombay. The travails of the appellant has taken him from Allahabad, where he is currently studying to Kharagpur and Bombay and eventually to the national capital. Having regard to the facts of the case, it would be a grave travesty of justice to the young Dalit student who has to finally move this court, is turned away from its portals&hellip;&rdquo; The bench noted that if the petitioner Prince Jaibir Singh, who has secured 864 All India ranks in the SC category in the IIT entrance exam, is not admitted in this academic year, he will be ineligible to appear for further entrance examinations as he has appeared in two consecutive attempts.
&ldquo;Hence, we are of the view that this is a fit and proper case where the exercise of jurisdiction under Article 142 of the constitution is warranted at the interim stage, in the facts which have appeared before the court. We accordingly direct the first and second respondent (IIT, Bombay) to ensure that the seat which is allocated to the appellant shall be allotted to him at IIT, Bombay. This shall be done without disturbing any other students, who have already been admitted&rdquo;, the bench said.
The top court said that the creation of supernumerary seats in the facts of the present case shall be subject to the admission of Singh being regularised if any seats fall vacant as a result of exigencies, which may arise in the course of the admission process.
&ldquo;Parties shall act on the certified copy of this order and implement these directions within a period of 48 hours that is by November 24,&rdquo; the bench said.
During the hearing, the bench was informed by advocate Sonal Jain, appearing for Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JOSAA) and IIT, Bombay that there are no more seats available in any of the IITs across the country as the admission process is complete and the court can pass an order under Article 142 for allocating a seat to Singh.
The bench said, &ldquo;Look at the background of the child. He has to borrow money from his sister after his credit card malfunctioned. Don&rsquo;t be wooden like this. We can pass an order under Article 142 but that may not be favourable for IITs. You can adopt a humanitarian approach and explore the possibilities. Explain this to the chairman&rdquo;.
The top court said that many seats get vacant after students take admission in different institutes to further their career in better options and IIT should look and allocate one such seat to this student.
&ldquo;Something has to be done for this student. It is elementary common sense, which students would not like to get into IIT, Bombay and not pay Rs. 50,000 fees. It is obvious that he has some financial problems. He has to borrow money from his sister. These students study years after years for this exam. Look at their background,&rdquo; the bench said.

SC opens IIT-Bombay gates for Dalit boy who failed to pay fees in time

"Travesty of justice": Supreme Court comes to the rescue of a Dalit boy who risked losing IIT seat for not paying fees in time. Know details here

Top Court directs IIT-Bombay to create a seat for Dalit boy

A 17-year-old Dalit student who was about to lose his seat at IIT-Bombay got relief from the Supreme Court on Monday.
The judges said that it would be a "travesty of justice" if Prince Jaibeer Singh was denied admission and failed to receive help from the nation's highest court of law.
Prince, a resident of Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad, got selected for civil engineering branch at the IIT's Bombay campus on October 27. But he was unable to pay the fee of ₹ 15,000 -- the initial amount to be paid online in order to secure the seat.
Initially, he fell short of money. But when he was able to arrange for it with some help from his sister, he couldn't pay in time due to technical glitches on the website.
He moved approached Bombay High Court, which rejected his plea. Prince then moved the Supreme Court.
On Monday, the top court asked the IIT to allocate him a seat within 48 hours.
When the court was informed that there were no seats left at the IITs, it directed IIT-Bombay to create a seat for the student.
"Create a seat for this student. Ensure that this does not disturb any other already admitted student," the court said.

The novel coronavirus may survive for longer on plastic and glass compared to porous surfaces like paper and cloth, a new study by the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay suggests.
The study noted that droplets remained in the liquid form for a shorter time on porous surfaces, making it less favourable for survival of the virus.&nbsp;99.9% of the droplet's liquid content for both impermeable and porous surfaces evaporates within the first few minutes.&nbsp;Post that, a microscopic thin residual liquid film remains on the exposed solid parts, where the virus can still survive.
The study concluded that the virus may survive for four days on glass, seven days on plastic and stainless steel, while it survived only three hours on paper and two days on cloth.
Researchers recommend that to prevent the spread of virus upon touch, furniture in hospitals and offices which is usually made of impermeable materials, must be covered with porous material.&nbsp;
