Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the appellant's resignation from the M.D. (Endocrinology) seat was valid as it was communicated within the stipulated time frame after the second round of counselling results. The Court emphasized that the original prospectus allowed for resignation if not upgraded, and the subsequent amendment did not retroactively affect the appellant's rights. The Court ruled in favor of the appellant, thereby setting aside the penalty imposed by Respondent No.4/College for non-payment of the bond amount.
