Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court, while exercising its jurisdiction under Article 32 of the Constitution, quashed the letter dated 13.07.2013 from the Medical Council of India that revoked the permission for renewal of admission for additional intake of students at Rohilkhand Medical College. The Court held that the Medical Council's decision was arbitrary and lacked proper justification, emphasizing the need for adherence to procedural fairness in administrative actions. The judgment reinforces the principle that educational institutions must be given a fair opportunity to rectify deficiencies before punitive measures are taken under Section 10A of the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956.
