Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the jurisdiction of the Rajasthan Board of Homeopathic Medicine under the Rajasthan Homeopathic Medicine Act, 1969 and the Homeopathy Central Council Act, 1973. It held that the Board's authority to conduct B.H.M.S. examinations was invalid as the Board was not recognized for this degree under the Central Act, thus affirming the High Court's decision. The Court emphasized the necessity of adherence to statutory provisions regarding the recognition of medical qualifications, particularly under Section 13 of the Homeopathy Central Council Act, 1973.
