Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the transfer of the appellant from M.S. Ramayya Medical College to Gandhi Medical College was valid, as it was approved by the State Government and did not violate any rules. The Court emphasized that a third party cannot challenge the validity of a transfer order retrospectively, especially when it affects settled admissions. The Court allowed the appeal, reinstating the appellant's admission to the M.D. course in Radiology, as Dr. Jain's delay in contesting the merit list barred him from challenging the appellant's admission at this stage.
