S. Krishna Sradha vs The State Of Andhra Pradesh Medical ... on 21 August, 2019
The direction given by the High Court pertains to the admission for the
academic year 2019-2020. The High Court ought not to have shown indulgence
to the writ petitioners by directing admission in the vacant seats that arose in
the year 2019-2020 and permit the students to start their course in the
academic year 2020-2021. We are aware that the interference by this Court
would cause loss of an academic year to the students. However, we cannot
support the judgment of the High Court in granting admission for the year 2020-
2021 as it is contrary to the judgment of this Court in S. Krishna Sradha
(supra) case. The students approached the High Court almost one and a half
year after the last date of admission of the first year MBBS course for the
academic year 2019-2020.
