Deemed universities: SC orders centralised counselling

NEW DELHI: Clearing the confusion over admission to deemed universities in Maharashtra, the Supreme Court today ordered centralised counselling for all unfilled medical seats in the state.

            The apex court directed that second or third counselling for the MBBS/BDS courses would be conducted as a joint exercise by a committee comprising officials from Maharashtra Government and representatives of the deemed universities.

            “Insofaras second or third counselling is concerned, that shall be a joint exercise which means that it shall be done by the Committee of the State Government which shall include one representative each from these universities. The respondent universities shall nominate their respective representatives forthwith,” a bench comprising Justices A K Sikri and L Nageswara Rao said.

            The court clarified that it will be a centralised for all the deemed universities counselling and not university-wise counselling and the students will be enrolled by taking into account the combined list of those who got themselves registered with the State Government as well as universities.
