Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the deletion of Category III from the NRI quota for admissions, as per the corrigendum dated 13.7.2007, was unjust to the appellants who had relied on the original notification dated 21.3.2007. The Court emphasized that the appellants had forfeited opportunities in other universities based on their belief in securing admission under the NRI quota. Consequently, the Court held that the appellants were entitled to relief and should be considered for admission under the NRI quota for the academic session of 2007.
