Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals concerning the admission process for medical colleges in Rajasthan, specifically focusing on the legality of the common entrance test and the subsequent admissions for the academic year 2008-2009. The Court emphasized that the Geetanjali Medical College could not admit students without prior approval from the Government of India and the Medical Council of India, as mandated by Article 21 of the Constitution. The Court upheld the decision of the Rajasthan High Court, affirming that the College's admissions were invalid due to lack of necessary clearances, thereby reinforcing the principle that educational institutions must comply with regulatory requirements before admitting students.
