Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the implementation of a Scheme prepared by the Medical Council of India for a unified syllabus and All India Entrance Examination for medical admissions, despite objections from several States regarding the timing and medium of instruction. The Court emphasized the need for national cohesion in education and rejected calls for deferral, stating that the Scheme should be operational from the 1988-89 academic session. The Court directed that the examination be held in June 1988, allowing for necessary preparations.
