Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the High Court's directive to the Medical Council of India (MCI) for a re-inspection of a medical college seeking to increase its MBBS intake from 100 to 150 students. The Court held that the MCI's decision to deny renewal of permission based on identified deficiencies was valid and that the High Court overstepped its jurisdiction by mandating a re-inspection. Consequently, the Court upheld the MCI's authority in regulating medical education and dismissed the appeals against the MCI's decision.
