Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the admission process for the post-graduate course in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the appellant College was valid, as all eight seats were filled by institutional candidates due to the absence of All India candidates. The Court clarified that the eligibility for external candidates should not be restricted to those who had already applied, but should be open to all qualified external candidates. However, the Court upheld the decision to fill the seats with institutional candidates as a transitional measure until the implementation of an All-India examination for admissions, thus dismissing the appeals of the Principal and institutional candidates.
