Karnataka HC grants relief to 447 MBBS medicos, waives their compulsory rural service
Advertisement
In a recent order, the Karnataka High Court granted relief to 447 MBBS medicos by waiving their compulsory rural service for one year, as sought under the 2012 amendment of Rule 11 of Karnataka Selection of Candidates for Admission to Government seats in Professional Educational Institutions Rules 2006. The HC bench comprising Justice M Nagaprasanna granted this relief after noting that the State Government failed to notify the amended rule in the official Gazette for 10 years after it was finalised.
However, clarifying that the relief was only limited to the petitioners, the bench further held that the concerned law is valid and MBBS students pursuing their education in government medical colleges or government quota seats in private medical institutes cannot escape from rural service bond.
