Overview

On the plea that medical institutions with inadequate infrastructure and subpar academic standards were allegedly securing high rankings under the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF), the Madras High Court has issued an interim stay order restraining the Union Ministry of Education and the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) from publishing the NIRF ranking 2025.

The court's order came in response to a public interest litigation (PIL) filed by C Chellamuthu from Dindigul, alleging that the information in NIRF rankings in the past was manipulated and fraudulent so that those institutions could unjustly promote themselves even after they failed to meet basic medical education standards.
