Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the validity of four notifications issued by the Medical Council of India and the Dental Council of India, specifically focusing on amendments to the Regulations on Graduate Medical Education. The Court held that the notifications were issued without proper consultation and violated the principles of natural justice, thus rendering them invalid. The Court emphasized the necessity of adherence to procedural fairness in administrative actions, particularly in matters affecting educational institutions.
