SUNEEL JATLEY ETC. vs STATE OF HARYHANA ETC.

The Supreme Court held that the reservation of 25 seats for candidates from Rural Areas for admission to the M.B.B.S. course, based on education from Class 1 to 8 in rural schools, violates Articles 14, 15(4), and 29(2) of the Constitution. The Court established that the classification lacks intelligible differentia and rational relation to the objective of the provision, rendering it arbitrary and unconstitutional. Consequently, the Court allowed the petitions challenging the reservation.
