Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the State Government to increase the reservation of seats for in-service candidates in Post Graduate Medical Courses from 25% to 50%, affirming the State's authority under Article 14 and Article 16 of the Constitution to regulate admissions based on policy decisions. The Court found that the learned Single Judge's interference with this policy was unjustified, as the increase was based on valid reasons related to the objectives of the reservation policy. Consequently, the appeals were allowed, maintaining the increased reservation percentage.
