Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the allocation of vacant seats in MBBS/BDS courses following the All India Entrance Examination, establishing guidelines for reallocation. It held that candidates allocated to unrecognized colleges must be moved to recognized ones based on proximity to their home towns. Additionally, candidates who preferred MBBS but were admitted to BDS due to seat shortages should be absorbed into MBBS against available vacancies in merit order. The Court mandated that the Director General of Health Services implement these guidelines within three weeks, ensuring that existing allocations remain undisturbed.
