Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of accommodating medical students from a closed college, emphasizing the need for compliance with Section 10-A of the Medical Council of India Act. The Court held that the Medical Council of India (MCI) must facilitate the transfer of students to other recognized medical colleges based on merit and available seats, as the students had already qualified and attended classes. The Court directed the MCI and the Directorate General of Medical Education to ensure the implementation of its earlier order regarding student accommodation.
