Quoting the book of Psalms from the Bible, the Orissa High Court has directed the Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology to regularise the admission and publish the results of a BSc Agriculture student, whose results were withheld owing to late payment of semester fees.
Justice Dixit Krishna Shripad quoted the book of Psalms from the Bible while granting relief to the student and said, “The petitioner, having acknowledged his fault, calls for lenient consideration. An honest apology ordinarily dilutes the guilt, says the Bible (Psalm 32:5).”
