Solution

Based on the information provided, Dinesh has a Master's degree in Psychology with 65% marks and has been working as a School psychologist/counselor for the last 10 years. However, it is not mentioned whether he has a Postgraduate diploma in Guidance and Counseling, or his scores in the written test and interview.

If we consider the criteria:

  1. Dinesh meets the first criteria as he has a Postgraduate degree in Psychology with more than 60% marks.

  2. It is not mentioned whether Dinesh has a Postgraduate diploma in Guidance and Counseling, so we cannot determine if he meets the second criteria.

  3. Dinesh's scores in the written test and interview are not provided, so we cannot determine if he meets the third criteria.

  4. Dinesh meets the fourth criteria as he has more than 3 years of experience in the relevant area.

Considering the exceptions:

  1. If Dinesh does not meet the first criteria but has secured more than 65% in the written test and interview, his case should be referred to the Management. However, we do not have information about his scores.

  2. If Dinesh does not meet the second and third criteria but has more than ten years of experience in the relevant field, his case should be referred to the Principal. Dinesh does have more than ten years of experience.

Based on the information provided and the criteria, the course of action would be to "Refer to the principal" (Option D), assuming Dinesh does not meet the second and third criteria. However, without complete information, this decision could change.
