v.
Union of India & Anr. ___________________________ Respondent(s)
Writ Petition (Civil) No. 423 of 2017, decided on May 10, 2018
The Order of the court was delivered by
Order
1. The instant writ petition has been filed by the petitioners-college challenging the ban imposed on it by respondent no. 1-Union of India for admitting the students for two academic years i.e. 2017-18 and 2018-19. This ban was imposed in pursuance of a direction from the Oversight Committee that if deficiencies are found after inspection is conducted, the petitioner-college shall be banned for a period of two years. An inspection was conducted on 7.3.2017 and several deficiencies were found with the petitioner-college. It is not necessary to go into the details of the deficiencies in view of the following order we propose to pass :
2. We find that the petitioner-college is admittedly and completely devoid of students. The students have already been shifted to some other medical colleges by the State Government. We find it difficult to accept the contention of learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners that they have teaching staff.
3. Having regard to that, no purpose would be served even if any relief granted to the petitioners in respect of two years i.e. 2017-18 and 2018-19 for which they have been banned since there are no students in their college.
4. In the circumstances, we consider it appropriate to dismiss the instant writ petition with the observation that the petitioners-college would be entitled to pursue the permission for the academic years i.e. 2019-20 and 2020-21, after the period of ban, in accordance with law.
5. With the aforesaid observations, the instant writ petition is dismissed.
