Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the appeal by the Medical Council of India, setting aside the High Court's order that quashed the Council's decision dated 11.07.2014 to deny permission for establishing a medical college. The Court held that the High Court erred in quashing the order, which was consistent with the Medical Council of India Establishment of Medical College Regulations, 1999, and the precedents set in Priya Gupta Vs. State of Chhattisgarh and Mridul Dhar Vs. Union of India. The Court emphasized the importance of adhering to the prescribed timelines for applications.
