Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed a challenge under Article 32 of the Constitution regarding the debarment of Krishna Mohan Medical College from admitting students for the MBBS course. The Court annulled the Central Government's order dated 31.05.2017, which had authorized the Medical Council of India to encash a bank guarantee, and remitted the matter for fresh consideration, emphasizing the need for a reasoned decision after hearing the petitioners. The judgment reinforces the procedural requirements under the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956, and the Establishment of Medical College Regulations, 1999, ensuring compliance with statutory obligations.
