The High Court has rejected the plea of Janardhanan for interim relief against the establishment of Aligarh Muslim University in Kerala at Perinthalmanna.

 The Chief Justice J. Chelameswar and Justice PN Ravindran noted that the petitioner has overlooked the language of Section 12(2) of the Act. High Court of Kerala further observed that the Section 12(2) of the AMU Act reads the University may also, “with the sanction of the Visitor and subject to the statutes and ordinances, establish and maintain such special centers, specialized laboratories or such other institutions for research or instruction as are necessary for the furtherance of its objects either on its own or in co-operation or collaboration with any other institution”.
