This writ petition has been listed under the heading 'To Be
Mentioned' at instance of petitioners. Affidavit-of-service filed along
with track record which shows tracking of postal article as dispatched
to Haldia RMS.
Mr. Mukherjee, learned senior advocate appears on behalf of
petitioners and submits, petitioner no. 2 is a medical student. By
reason of her having suffered a disease called 'Pituitary Adinoma", she
needs to be nearer to her place of treatment. As such, she wants to
migrate from being a student of respondent no. 3 to that of
respondent no. 4. By this writ petition she has asked for compelling respondent no. 3 to issue no objection certificate. There is urgency 2 since clinical courses in respondent no. 4 are due to commence from end July 2018 for the year of course study of petitioner. Mr. Bhattacharya, learned advocate appears on behalf of respondent no. 1 and submits, this migration is not permissible under Medical Council of India Regulations on Graduate Medical Education, 1997 as requirement under regulation 6(6)(2) is not fulfilled. Respondent no. 3 is a permitted, as opposed to recognized, college and that is why the migration is not permissible. Mr. Mukherjee clarifies that upon getting 'no objection' from respondent no. 3 his client will duly apply for migration.
Petitioners are directed to obtain and serve a copy of this order on respondent no. 4. Respondent no. 4 will make known its position on adjourned date failing which Court will proceed and deal with this writ petition.
List on 19th July, 2018 under the same heading.
