Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Central Government to debar the petitioner-institute from admitting students for two academic sessions due to significant deficiencies in faculty, infrastructure, and clinical material as identified by the Medical Council of India (MCI). The Court emphasized the importance of compliance with regulatory standards in medical education, referencing the Ministry's authority under the relevant medical education statutes. The Court affirmed the Ministry's decision to encash the bank guarantee of Rs. 2 Crore, thereby supporting the regulatory framework governing medical colleges in India.
