The division bench comprising the Chief Justice Hrishikesh Roy and Justice AK Jayasankaran Nambiar dismissed the appeal filed by Cochin Institute Of Science And Technology (CISAT) against a single bench order which had held that students cannot be compelled to continue in a college which, according to their perception, would be detrimental to their studies and their career. The application made by the students seeking inter-collegiate transfer from CISAT to another self-financing college, under the same university, was rejected by the college principal. The transfer was sought on the ground that amenities and infrastructure in the college were inadequate.
