Granting relief to a medical student, the Supreme Court recently allowed protection to his MBBS degree even though the ST (Scheduled Tribe) Certificate, submitted by the candidate at the time of admission, was declared to be invalid.
Noting that the petitioner student has already completed the education and the seat cannot be allotted to anyone, the top court bench of CJI BR Gavai and Justice Vijay Bishnoi observed that if protection is not granted to him, the student's medical education would go to waste.
