Instruct Although the papers were regulated by the provisions contained in the prospectus, the details about the number of students going from different colleges to Khyber Medical College show that all transfers, except one or two, were allowed at this time. On the contrary, the government neither the college nor the government had complied with the prospectus. They allowed it, if and when their will and caprici were allowed and they denied it if it was otherwise permissible. If the provisions of the prospectus had any meaning, they meant every body, including the government. There is something to be done once applying to the principals or government of the colleges. The decision was made to record according to the provisions of Section 24A of the General Clause Act, 1897, for reasons which were not made to remain asleep indefinitely; In the light of the grounds laid down in the petition, the decision could not be made as soon as possible as many disputes raised by the applicant's lawyer fell into the realm of factual dispute. The High Court, exercising its constitutional jurisdiction, instead of expressing its views one way or another, directed the principals of the colleges and the government to give reasons for recording the prescribed period.
