An MDS Course Must Be Completed Within Six Years Of Admission, And A Student Who Cannot Do So Has No Right To Continue: Andhra Pradesh High Court

The Andhra Pradesh High Court has dismissed a plea by an MDS student seeking to continue his course, holding that under the Dental Council of India’s Master of Dental Surgery Course Regulations, 2017, the course must be completed within a maximum of six years from the date of admission, a limit the petitioner could not meet on any view. The Court noted that his attendance and examination record was also deficient, and found no ground to interfere.
