The Vice-Chancellor (V-C) of Sree Sankaracharya University of Sanskrit, Kalady, has moved the Kerala High Court seeking to set aside a Single Bench order which allowed suspended students of the university to write semester examinations

V-C Ciza Thomas, along with the University Syndicate, challenged a Single Bench order to accept the examination fee from the students and provisionally permit them to participate in the examinations, scheduled on November 4. 

Meanwhile, the students have filed a contempt of court petition against the University, alleging non-compliance with the Single Bench order directing them to pay the examination fees. They alleged that they were not allowed to enter the University when they went to register for the examinations. They further stated that the University had not opened the online portal for registration either.
