MEDICAL COUNCIL OF INDIA vs MANAS RANJAN BEHERA .

The Supreme Court emphasized the necessity of adhering to the time schedules set forth in the Regulations, stating that failure to comply would result in personal liability for the defaulting party. The Court noted that, despite the High Court's impugned Order, the 12 students were eligible for admission but could not secure it due to an unprecedented situation. As a one-time measure, the Court condoned the delay in their admission while reiterating the importance of strict compliance with the prescribed time schedules in the future.
