Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of institutional preference in admissions to PG medical courses at Delhi University, emphasizing the need for uniformity in criteria across states. The Court upheld the validity of the admission criteria set by Delhi University, which includes residency requirements and completion of an internship, as consistent with the principles established in Dr. Parag Gupta vs. University of Delhi & Ors., 2000 (5) SCC 684. The Court ruled that the criteria do not violate any constitutional provisions, thereby allowing the continuation of the existing admission policies.
