Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision granting relief to the respondent-doctors, emphasizing that confusion existed regarding the admission rules for the Diplomate of National Board Course (DNB). The Court noted that the respondents had already completed a significant portion of their course and thus should be allowed to continue their studies. The Court refrained from commenting on the binding nature of the Board's rules, leaving the broader legal question open for future consideration, and clarified that the judgment should not serve as a precedent.
