Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed appeals regarding provisional admissions to post-graduate medical courses, emphasizing that such admissions should not be granted at the interlocutory stage without clear justification. The Court noted that the High Court's order was based on a fraudulent writ petition and reiterated that admissions must adhere to the Indian Medical Council's prescribed timelines and regulations. The Court held that allowing provisional admissions could lead to significant adverse consequences and undermine educational discipline, thus reversing the High Court's decision.
