MEDICAL COUNCIL OF INDIA vs JSS MEDICAL COLLEGE

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal by the Medical Council of India against the Karnataka High Court's interim order allowing JSS Medical College to increase its MBBS seats from 150 to 200 for the academic year 2011-2012. The Court held that the Board of Governors had adequately assessed the College's infrastructure and found it insufficient for a larger intake, thus upholding the decision to deny the increase to 250 seats. The Court emphasized the importance of maintaining educational standards and the necessity of adequate facilities as per the Medical Council of India regulations.
