PREETI MITTAL vs GAGANJOT KAUR SAIRA

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of admission procedures for the MBBS course at Government Medical College, Chandigarh, as per the Punjab and Haryana High Court's order. The Court held that the Chandigarh Administration's decision to fill 85% of seats from the Chandigarh Pool before the All India Pool was contrary to the principles established in prior judgments, specifically violating the provisions of the Notification issued on 19.9.98. The Court directed that the 15% All India quota must be filled first, ensuring that meritorious candidates from Chandigarh are not disadvantaged.
