Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the fixation of fees for undergraduate medical courses under the Uttarakhand Unaided Private Professional Educational Institutions (Regulation of Admission and Fixation of Fee) Act, 2006. The Court upheld the fee structure determined by the Admission and Fee Regulatory Committee and affirmed by the appellate authority, stating that the fees for the academic year 2018-2019 should align with the subsequent years' fees. The Court dismissed the petitioners' challenge to the fee increase, emphasizing the authority of the regulatory framework established by the state legislature.
