The Supreme Court, on Tuesday, declined to entertain an MBBS student's plea challenging the termination of his admission without prior notice at an Odisha-based medical college. Justices Rajesh Bindal and R Mahadevan advised the student's counsel, Harshit Agrawal, to address grievances at the high court level instead.
The student, seeking re-admission for the 2024–2029 academic session, argued his termination was illegal, lacking notice or a hearing. He called for uniform procedural guidelines across medical colleges to ensure fairness. Agrawal's decision to skip the high court drew questions from the bench.
Despite citing a similar previous plea, Justice Bindal confirmed the court would not entertain a direct writ petition, leading to the withdrawal of the plea. Agrawal's petition involved multiple parties, including the National Medical Commission and other stakeholders.
