Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's interim order allowing a medical student to write his final examination at a different center due to exceptional circumstances, specifically his mental health concerns and family situation. The Court noted that the High Court's decision did not set a precedent and was a discretionary exercise of power. The appeals filed by the University against this order were dismissed, affirming the High Court's ruling without costs.
