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 Justice Jasmeet Singh said MBBS admissions cannot be rescinded without valid, genuine, and compelling reasons, even amid NEET-UG irregularities.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 Delhi High Court has issued notices to the Union Government, UGC, and NTA regarding a PIL filed by Mona Arya, seeking entrance exam fee exemptions for women candidates applying to centrally-funded institutions. Arya argues this would aid financially disadvantaged women in pursuing higher education, highlighting a previously unimplemented 2010 memorandum.
