Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of recognition and affiliation of the appellant-College under the Homoeopathy Central Council Act, 1973. The Court held that the High Court erred in concluding that the College was not affiliated to any University or had received State Government permission, emphasizing that disputed factual matters should be resolved through a Review Petition rather than in the Supreme Court's jurisdiction under Article 136. The Court permitted the petitioners to file a Review Petition within 15 days, ensuring the High Court would consider it on merits without limitation concerns.
