Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the validity of G.O.Ms. No.55 issued by the Government of Tamil Nadu regarding the selection procedure for admission to Post-graduate and Higher Speciality courses, which reserved 50% of seats for in-service candidates. The Court found that the procedure followed was consistent with prior practices and did not violate any legal provisions. The appeals against the Full Bench decision of the Madras High Court were dismissed, affirming the government's reservation policy.
