Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the appellant was wrongfully denied admission to the MBBS course due to an incorrect certificate issued by the Zilla Sainik Board, which was rectified after the initial counselling. The Court emphasized that the rectified certificate should have been accepted, as it confirmed the appellant's eligibility under Clause 2.1.4 of the JEE-2003 Information Brochure. The Court directed the respondents to admit the appellant based on her corrected status, thereby overturning the High Court's dismissal of her writ petition.
