Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the legality of the Bombay High Court's order directing the Directorate of Medical Education and Research (DMER) to shift students between medical colleges based on admission rules. The Court held that the High Court's decision violated the established admission process and the rules governing seat allocation, specifically referencing the principles of administrative fairness and the sanctity of the admission process. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order, reaffirming the importance of adhering to established admission protocols.
