Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the chaotic admission processes for medical and professional courses, emphasizing the need for a streamlined and uniform policy across states. The Court highlighted the issues of varying eligibility criteria and the unplanned growth of institutions, which often prioritize commercial interests over educational quality. It recommended that a designated agency conduct entrance examinations to standardize admissions, thereby reducing student anxiety and unfair practices. The judgment calls for comprehensive reforms to ensure fairness and transparency in the admission process.
