Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Gujarat High Court's decision that the entrance examination conducted by K.M. Shah Dental College was not fair and transparent, violating principles of fair admission processes. The Court emphasized the need for regulatory bodies like the Dental Council of India to establish clear timelines for admissions to prevent irregularities. The judgment referenced the precedent set in P.A. Inamdar v. State of Maharashtra, affirming that while colleges may conduct their own entrance exams, they must adhere to fair practices in the selection process.
