Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the cancellation of conditional permissions for medical colleges under Section 10A of the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956, which prohibits the establishment of new medical colleges without prior approval. The Court upheld the Government's decision to debar these institutions from admitting students for the academic years 2017-18 and 2018-19 due to deficiencies identified by the Medical Council of India. The ruling reinforces the necessity of compliance with regulatory standards for medical education institutions.
