Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of jurisdiction under Article 32 of the Constitution, determining that the petitioners should have approached the High Court instead of directly invoking this Court's jurisdiction. The Court examined the refusal of the Medical Council of India (MCI) to renew permission for the petitioner institutes to admit students for the MBBS course for the academic year 2015-16, citing Regulation 8 (3) (1) (a) of the Establishment of Medical College Regulations, 1999. The Court held that the second inspection conducted by MCI was valid and upheld the decision not to recommend renewal, emphasizing the importance of following proper procedural channels for such grievances.
