Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the Parshvanath College of Engineering's shift to a new location without prior approval from the AICTE and the University of Mumbai, violating the provisions of the AICTE Act. The Court held that such unauthorized relocation contravenes the established regulatory framework, emphasizing the necessity of obtaining requisite approvals under Section 10 of the AICTE Act. Consequently, the Court dismissed the appeals, affirming the Bombay High Court's judgment that the college's operations at the new site were unauthorized.
