In Brief
One hundred fifty students admitted to a private medical college's first-year MBBS programme filed a petition after studying for a year, claiming the college failed to comply with Medical Council of India regulatory standards and lacked proper university affiliation. The Supreme Court directed the college to immediately transfer all land, buildings, and assets to the State Government, which was to take over the institution. The Court held that students could take first-year examinations only after the State obtains university affiliation and Medical Council permission for the college. The DGP was ordered to seal the premises, and the Court reserved exclusive jurisdiction over all future college-related litigation.
