Drawing a line between the Sponsored candidates and General Candidates, the Andhra Pradesh High Court recently denied relief to a candidate who had sought admission against a vacant sponsored seat at PGIMER, Chandigarh.
Noting that the petitioner did not fulfil the conditions for sponsored seat, the HC bench comprising of Chief Justice Prashant Kumar Mishra and Justice D.V.S.S Somayajulu noted, "Therefore, it is clear that the candidates who apply for the sponsored seats are a distinct category of applicants who have to fulfil certain eligibility criteria for being treated as a sponsored candidate and also have to assume certain responsibilities after the completion of the training. Admittedly, the petitioner does not fit into this clause. Thus the petitioner and the candidates for sponsored seats cannot be treated as 'equals' for the petitioner to allege inequality or a violation of constitutional rights."
