Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court, while adjudicating a petition under Article 32, addressed the debarment of Krishna Mohan Medical College from admitting students for the MBBS course as per the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956. The Court annulled the Central Government's order dated 31.05.2017, directing a fresh consideration of the petitioners' application after providing them an opportunity for a hearing. The Court emphasized the need for a reasoned decision regarding the conditional letter of permission for establishing the medical college, thereby upholding the principles of natural justice.
