The Delhi High Court held that pursuing higher or professional education, though not fundamental, imposes an affirmative duty on governments. Justice Jasmeet Singh said MBBS admissions cannot be rescinded without valid, genuine, and compelling reasons, even amid NEET-UG irregularities.
The Gujarat High Court upheld the cancellation of an MBBS admission for a student from a reserved category due to caste classification discrepancies. Despite eligibility for general admission, the student’s claim for reservation benefits led to cancellation. The court emphasized the consequences of claiming reservation and highlighted the need to abide by eligibility criteria.
