Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the petition filed by Saraswati Educational Charitable Trust under Article 32, challenging the Union of India's order debarring the college from admitting students for the MBBS course for the academic sessions 2017-18 and 2018-19. The Court held that the Central Government must reconsider the materials related to the college's permission, emphasizing the necessity of evaluating recommendations from the Medical Council of India under Section 10A of the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956. The Court mandated a fresh hearing and decision within 10 days, ensuring compliance with the Oversight Committee's directives.
