Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Central Government to deny admission to the Karpagam Faculty of Medical Sciences & Research for the MBBS course for the academic year 2017-18, citing Section 11(2) of the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956. The Court emphasized the importance of compliance with the recommendations of the Medical Council of India (MCI) and confirmed that admissions made contrary to the government's decision would be deemed irregular. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's ruling.
