Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's direction to the Medical Council of India for a belated inspection of the respondent institution was contrary to the Medical Council of India Establishment of Medical College Regulations, 1999. The Court referenced the precedents set in Priya Gupta Vs. State of Chhattisgarh [(2012) 7 SCC 433] and Royal Medical Trust Vs. Union of India [(2015) 9 Scale 68], establishing that such directions are not justifiable. Consequently, the Court quashed the High Court's direction and set aside its judgment, allowing the appeals with no order as to costs.
