I want to discuss a matter - my marks are illegally deducted by my University. They first issued me a pass mark sheet and now they issued me a fail mark sheet while I went there for my provisional degree. Well, I have filed a civil writ against the university. Some students have got justice while others are waiting. I'm going for an interview now, so is there any chance that the employer will hire me because I'm applying with my old mark sheet?

You are left with no option but to wait before applying for jobs. Court decision can go either way. Presently, your position is that you have failed on record. This kind of negligence by the university can harm job prospects. A very difficult situation for you.

Dear Akhil, what has happened to you is unfortunate. The issue of the second mark sheet must have given you a big shock. The instance well illustrates the rot that has run deep in the field of education. Notwithstanding advancements in technology, today in the 21st century, we come across problems that we did not face in the immediate aftermath of our independence. In the recent past, there was news of Mumbai University losing answer sheets of 53,000 students!
Though education is in the concurrent list of the constitution, the union education minister could have done a lot to fix the rot of the decaying universities. While the former education minister often locked horns with this or that Director of the prominent institute, the present education minister does not do anything beyond his characteristic smile!
Castigating education ministers apart, I have one question. Before filing a writ petition, did you apply for the reevaluation of the marks? Generally, in most universities, reevaluation of marks is done in a time-bound manner.
The second solution is hastening the process of litigation. Just check with some high court lawyer whether it is possible to bring an injunction order (or any other order for that matter) so that the case is taken up expeditiously. Of course, this is a layman's suggestion or a query. Though this route is costly, if you are about to get the job, then weigh between the cost of lost opportunities versus the cost of additional litigation. If the former outweighs the latter, then it makes sense to go for that option.
Thanks,

I concur with the views of Mr. Rao and Mr. Dinesh on the prospective employer's perspective of considering the questioner for selection and expediting the pending litigation in the court, respectively.
