1. Issue notice to Respondents. Mr. T. Singhdev, Advocate, accepts notice on behalf of NMC. Let counter affidavit be filed within a period of one week from today. Rejoinder thereto, if any, be filed within a period of three days thereafter.

5. At this juncture, Mr. T. Singhdev, counsel for NMC, has drawn the attention of this Court to Appendix IV of the Post Graduate Medical Education Regulations, 2000, which are guidelines regarding admission of students with specified disabilities for matters relating to admission in post graduate courses in modern medicine. Mr. Singhdev argues that the extent of specified disability in a person with disability ["PwD"] has to be assessed in accordance with prescribed guidelines, and if Petitioner's case was to be covered under specified locomotor disabilities on the ground of Poliomyelitis, "both hands should be intact, with intact sensations, sufficient strength and range of motion" in order to be eligible for admission to said course.
