Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the constitutionality of Section 30 of the Indian Veterinary Council Act, 1984, determining that it does not infringe upon the rights of non-graduate Veterinary Practitioners registered under the Maharashtra Veterinary Practitioners Act, 1971. The Court held that the Central Act was validly enacted under Article 252 of the Constitution, allowing Parliament to legislate on matters of State subjects when requested by States. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the applicability of the Central Act over the State Act.
