Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decisions of the Karnataka High Court which allowed the writ petitions filed by Karnataka Ayurveda Medical College against the Central Council for Indian Medicine. The court found that the High Court's judgments were justified in dismissing the appeals of the Central Council, thereby affirming the rights of the medical college to operate without undue interference. The outcome reinforces the autonomy of educational institutions in the field of Ayurveda.
