Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the Punjab & Haryana High Court's order allowing additional weightage to RMOs in MD Course admissions, which was contested by the appellants based on the precedent set in Satyabrata Sahoo & Ors. Vs. State of Orissa & Ors. (2012) 8 SCC 203. The Court held that the High Court's decision did not violate the rights of the appellants regarding their admission choices, despite concerns about the review process. The Court ultimately upheld the High Court's order, affirming the legality of the weightage provision for RMOs under the existing regulations.
