The petitioner had argued that they were unfairly deprived of admission to the UR-GS quota seats despite scoring more than other candidates who were admitted.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled in favour of several students from reserved categories who had been denied admission to MBBS courses under the Unreserved Category Government School (UR-GS) quota in Madhya Pradesh.
The decision comes after the petitioners challenged the Madhya Pradesh High Court's earlier rulings that upheld the state's decision to deny them seats.
The Supreme Court bench of Justices BR Gavai and KV Viswanathan cancelled the High Court orders of December 2023 and January 2024, which had dismissed the petitions. The petitioner had argued that they were unfairly deprived of admission to the UR-GS quota seats despite scoring more than other candidates who were admitted.
