OMBIR SINGH vs STATE OF U.P.

The Supreme Court upheld the validity of the admission rules for Post-Graduate Medical courses, which required a minimum of 50% marks for general category candidates and 40% for SC/ST candidates in the entrance examination. The Court found no legal or fundamental rights infringement by these rules, emphasizing that the State Government's adherence to these criteria in admissions was lawful. The judgment clarified that the rules are necessary to prevent vacancies in medical seats and maintain educational standards, referencing Dr. Ambesh Kumar v. Principal, LLRM Medical College, [1984] 1 SCR 661.
